LBDE-541 | A French-Inspired Culinary Pavilion for La Baguette de L’Entrecôte

LBDE-541 is a celebration of Parisian charm, where architecture and cuisine converge in a compact yet striking space. Designed for La Baguette de L’Entrecôte, this 24 sqm hospitality project in Batroun reinterprets classic French architectural elements with a contemporary twist, delivering a bold, eye-catching façade that invites guests into a world of refined aesthetics and culinary indulgence.

Despite its small footprint, LBDE-541 stands as an architectural statement—a miniature Parisian bistro, blending intricate detailing with functional efficiency.

A Harmonious Blend of Tradition & Modernity

Distinctive Red Frames – Inspired by classic French storefronts, the bold red detailing enhances the elegance of the dark façade, creating an iconic visual identity that captivates passersby.
French-Inspired Wall Lighting – Vintage-style black lanterns, mounted at each corner, cast a warm, ambient glow, reinforcing the authentic Parisian street-side atmosphere.
Patterned Tiles & Elegant Lighting – The interior complements the façade, featuring classic French floor tiles and warm pendant lighting, evoking the intimate charm of a Parisian café.

Navigating Constraints with Design Precision

The greatest challenge was crafting a space that embodied the richness of French design while avoiding a sense of confinement within the limited 20 sqm area. Through:

  • Strategic spatial planning, ensuring fluid movement and an open feel.
  • Carefully selected materials and colors, balancing depth and contrast without overwhelming the space.
  • A seamless indoor-outdoor connection, allowing the design to extend visually beyond its boundaries.

LBDE-541 is not just a food kiosk—it is a Parisian-inspired experience, transporting visitors through architecture, ambiance, and culinary artistry. Designed for La Baguette de L’Entrecôte, this small space with a grand presence redefines the essence of modern French-inspired hospitality.
