This 1930 building belonged to entrepreneur Lucien Gillet and was home to a Kodaks-Pathé shop on the ground floor.
Reims’ first building to have a lift, it was distinguished by its height of five floors topped by two stepped terraces and crowned with a panoramic corner viewpoint.
In the spirit of the Modernist movement, it is characterised by its refined geometry that can be found in the ironwork, the volumes and the interplay of the materials, particularly in the alternating concrete oriel windows and brick filling.
