Jacques Merle — It's time to fly on your own

When Contemporary Art Meets Hospitality in Paris

Located in the heart of Paris, the Drawing House has stood out since its opening for its unique approach: creating a dialogue between art and hospitality. True to its commitment to supporting contemporary artists and offering visitors extraordinary experiences, the hotel now unveils a new immersive work by artist Jacques Merle.

A Monumental Fresco at the Heart of the Drawing Hall

Installed in the Drawing Hall—a true crossroads where travelers, professionals, and art enthusiasts converge—the mural conceived by Jacques Merle transforms the space into a place of discovery and wonder.
Through his drawing and painting, the artist unfolds a dreamlike journey populated by mysterious figures: a flute player, a meditative angel, a mermaid, charcoal-sketched silhouettes… Each scene invites the viewer on an inner voyage, with no predetermined path—an almost initiatory quest where every glance reveals a new surprise.

A Poetic and Immersive World

Between sky, sea, and imaginary landscapes, Jacques Merle blurs the boundaries between the real and the imagined. His characters float, the rules are reversed, and the viewer is transported “to the other side of the mirror.” The fresco becomes a colorful, poetic haven—open to all, whether they are passing travelers, Paris locals, or lovers of contemporary art.

Drawing House: More Than a Hotel, an Artistic Experience in Paris

By entrusting its walls to Jacques Merle, the Drawing House reaffirms its ambition to be a vibrant space dedicated to contemporary creation. Here, a stay goes far beyond booking a room: it means immersing oneself in an artistic universe that continuously interacts with the architecture and the hotel experience.

At the crossroads of upscale hospitality and art, the Drawing House has established itself as a must-visit address in Paris for anyone eager to enjoy a unique cultural immersion.
