Habitat. Louis Vuitton Building
Habitat. Louis Vuitton Building: Frank Gehry is a design genius. We were recently watching a special about him on the FL Network. He's committed to his vision and lives to push the architectural boundaries. Throw tradition out the door when you think about Frank. "Gehry is best known for his sculptural approach to building design and for constructing curvaceous structures, often covered with reflective metal. His buildings, including his private residence, have become tourist attractions - many museums, companies, and cities seek Gehry's services as a badge of distinction, regardless of the product he delivers."*
Frank's best known work includes attractions like the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, which is covered in titanium. And now he's working on a new art center for Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy. As reported by Business Week: "The $127 million project, to be called the Louis Vuitton Foundation for Creation, will be located in the Bois de Boulogne, a large park just to the west of Paris."
