今天,在瑞典的尤卡斯亚维冰雪酒店,法国设计工作室Les Ateliers de Germaine用冰雕再现了巴黎的屋顶和烟囱建筑。
位于北极圈200公里处,这座是全世界最大的用冰雪建造的冰雪酒店。它每年会邀请不同设计师重新设计和打造不同的主题房间,让客人们在零下的温度中过夜。
来自Les Ateliers de Germaine巴黎总部的设计师Luc Voisin和Mathieu Brison希望赋予他们设计的空间涵义为“来自巴黎的明信片”。
这个房间是基于巴黎北部一个著名的蒙马特区设计的。他们雕刻了Sacré-Cœur教堂的一角,还有一系列的老虎窗和巴黎厚实的烟囱。
“巴黎似乎是法国最闻名世界的例子”,设计师Voisin说。“我们希望通过在影视和文学中的手法来展现巴黎,因为这里的一切都用曲线来表达,有些像卡通片中的场景。”
神奇的城市,传奇的城市,浪漫的城市,充满诗意的城市,具有象征意义的城市,巴黎永远是巴黎。
我们通过看电影、文学作品和音乐试图捕获巴黎的氛围和精髓,这似乎是吸引艺术家们和来自世界各地数十亿游客无尽灵感的源泉。
爬上埃菲尔铁塔,漫步在香榭丽舍大道,参观卢浮宫,在玛莱区购物,闲庭信步于塞纳河畔或小酌杯咖啡,每个人都在用自己的方式去享受和发现这座城市,就像探险家一样。
超越设计,超越建造,这是对我们向往历史名城的一次心灵之旅。你可以感受到生活在你周围的人甚者可以看到他们从窗户探出头来。你就是这座城市的一部分,你就是城市。
悬浮于天地之间,远离城市的混沌,在阁楼屋顶窗和烟囱之间辗转反侧,俯瞰城市天际线和不计其数闪烁光芒的窗户,这个房间会给你蒙马特的屋顶感觉,犹如巴兹鲁曼《红磨坊》作品中的圣教徒。
设计师Voisin描述:因为极端恶劣的天气,建造冰雕的过程实际是很有挑战性的,也是非常有趣的,“因为冰和雪的纹理和质地与温度有很大关系”。
“在不足10度的空间中,日复一日你需要调整不同的姿势来工作”,他解释说,“如果天气稍暖,雪会变得又湿又粘,如果天气变冷的话,冰会很脆弱并且裂缝。”
今天是冰雪酒店的第24个设计版本造型。在今天的其他套房设计中,有一个房间还会被设计成一位瑞典疯狂科学家Pinpin工作实验室的造型。

Icehotel suite by Les Ateliers de Germaine
One of the suites at this year's Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden, features blocks of ice carved into the shape of Parisian rooftops and chimney pots by French designers Les Ateliers de Germaine.
Located 200 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, the Icehotel is the largest hotel built of snow and ice in the world. It is constructed afresh every year and various artists are selected to create different themed rooms, allowing visitors to spend the night in sub-zero temperatures.
Luc Voisin and Mathieu Brison of Paris-based Les Ateliers de Germaine designed their space to represent "a postcard from France".
Luc Voisin and Mathieu Brison of Paris-based Les Ateliers de Germaine designed their space to represent "a postcard from France".
"Paris seemed to be the best example of a French city known all over the world," Voisin told Dezeen. "We thought about the way Paris is showed in cinema and literature. Because everything is a bit crooked in the room it looks like cartoon scenery."
Magical city, legendary city, romantic city, poetic city, symbolic city, Paris will always be Paris.
The cinema, literature and music have tried to capture the atmosphere and essence of Paris: it seems like it is an endless source of inspiration for artists and keeps attracting billions of tourists from all over the world.
Climbing to the top of the Eiffel Tower, walking on the Champs Elysées, visiting the Musée du Louvre, shopping in Le Marais, wandering along the River Seine or simply sipping coffee at a café, everyone can live and explore the city as they see fit, like adventurers.
More than a design, more than an architecture, it's a trip to the heart of one of the historical districts that we offer. You can feel the people living all around you, you might even see them if you're curiously peeking out the window. You are part of the city, you are the city.
Suspended between heaven and earth, far from the chaos of the city, rocked to sleep between dormer windows and chimneys, overlooking the city skyline and its countless shining windows, this room will take you to Montmartre's rooftops, as Satine and Christian in Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge.
Voisin said the process of creating the sculptures was challenging because of the extreme weather conditions: "It is very interesting because the texture of the snow and ice changes so much depending on the temperature."
"From one day to another you might have to adjust your gesture if it is ten degrees less," he explained. "If it is warmer, the snow is wet and sticky, if it is very cold, the ice cracks and is very fragile."
This year is the twenty-fourth edition of the Icehotel. Other suites created this year include a room modelled on a laboratory for a crazy scientist by Swedish designers Pinpin Studio.
