For this competition project, we were challenged to imagine a Ruinart experiential terrace designed to extend the Maison's universe into an open-air hospitality environment.

The concept was built around the idea of material as a medium of expression. Stone, wood, cork, glass, metal and organic textures come together to create a tactile environment where architecture and product are intrinsically connected.

The spatial composition takes inspiration from the dialogue between Ruinart’s heritage,  craftsmanship and contemporary artistic culture. A series of sculptural curved walls creates intimate spaces within the terrace while establishing a strong architectural identity visible from a distance.

Rather than creating a conventional branded terrace, the ambition was to design a journey through different moments of experience, from product discovery and tasting to dining, conversation and social interaction.
