Opulent and breathtaking Paris Cafe Mollien in the Louvre - found on Hello Lovely Studio

Elegant Decor Inspiration: Le Café Mollien

If you design freaks need an excuse to get
back to the Louvre or to visit for the first time,
maybe let this be it:
"I need to grab a bite at Le Café Mollien."

This is quite le cafe!
Overlooking galleries of French paintings
and completed in May 2016, this fantasy cafe
takes my breath away with its elegant refinery,
but what I could not stop staring at?

The pale pink egg lights which appear to
float in midair...are these not works of art
as more compelling than some of the treasures
drawing patrons to the Louvre?

Let's go to Paris!
And let's be inspired by this fantasy of a cafe.
