European Heritage Days 2020

On the occasion of the European Heritage Days 2020, the Fondation d’entreprise Martell offers you a range of activities: the design exhibition Places to be, ceramic workshops and sewing workshops.

Places to be brings together 14 international designers around a common project: to create a unique living space, consisting of living rooms designed by each of them. This mission is shrouded in mystery, like the famous game Cluedo where the use of each room is part of a singular atmosphere. Let yourself be drawn into these multiple environments and make yourself comfortable in this house imagined for you.
