🎯 Project Overview

L'Aventure is a prestigious Parisian address reborn under the vision of Gilbert and Thierry Costes. Located at 4 Avenue Victor Hugo in the heart of the 16th arrondissement, this iconic destination combines a 5-star hotel, an acclaimed restaurant, and an exclusive private members' club, all wrapped in a stunning Vincent Darré-designed interior blending Art Deco heritage with contemporary elegance.
They needed a digital presence as refined and captivating as the venue itself. I led the complete design and development of their new website on Webflow, including API integrations with Mews (for hotel bookings) and Zenchef (for restaurant reservations), delivering a seamless luxury experience from screen to table.

🛠️ My Role

Web Design: Designed an immersive, editorial website that captures the venue's Parisian elegance and guides visitors through three distinct experiences: Hotel, Restaurant, and Club.
Webflow Development: Built a fully custom, high-performance website with sophisticated animations, bilingual support (FR/EN), and seamless responsive design.
API Integration - News: Connected the hotel booking system for real-time room availability and reservations.
API Integration - Zenchef: Integrated the restaurant reservation platform for frictionless table bookings.


✨ Key Results

A premium digital experience matching the venue's 5-star positioning.
Unified presentation of three distinct offerings (Hotel, Restaurant, Club).
Seamless booking flows through News and Zenchef integrations.
Bilingual website serving both French and international clientele.
Elevated brand perception reinforcing Costes Group standards.


WEB DESIGN

Digital elegance for a legendary address.

I designed L'Aventure's website as a visual journey through Parisian luxury. The layout balances editorial sophistication with intuitive navigation, guiding visitors through the Hotel, Restaurant, and Club experiences. Rich imagery, refined typography, and generous white space evoke the venue's Art Deco-meets-contemporary aesthetic, while strategic CTAs drive reservations and membership inquiries.
Design highlights:
Luxurious visual language reflecting the Costes Group DNA
Three distinct sections with cohesive brand continuity
Full-bleed imagery showcasing Vincent Darré's interiors
Elegant micro-interactions and scroll animations
Mobile-first design for on-the-go luxury travelers
