The Musée des Arts décoratifs
This newly renovated wing of the Musée du Louvre, Paris - The Musée des Arts décoratifs is a perfect example of how a museum can be renovated to create an amazing experience for the viewer. Having been in the swing of visiting many galleries in a row this museum was a breath of fresh air. As each floor dedicated to a different era and the evolution of design is clearly demonstrated without being didactic. In particular the collection of chairs from the 60s is an installation in itself. The perfect visit for the history of object design.
