L’Aventure — Hotel, Restaurant & Private Club

A collaboration at the intersection of heritage, art, and technology.

🎯 Project Overview

L’Aventure is a luxury hotel, restaurant, and nightclub located at the Place de l’Étoile in Paris. We were selected by legendary designer Vincent Darré to bring this iconic venue’s digital presence to life, blending classical Parisian elegance with modern performance-driven design.
As Creative Director, I led the full execution of the digital ecosystem, from UX/UI design to Webflow development, custom automations, and KPI optimization.

🛠️ Role

Creative Direction: Crafted the digital identity in alignment with Vincent Darré’s artistic vision.
Design & Webflow Development: Fully custom site built in Webflow, optimized for speed and conversion.
Custom Typeface Design: We created an exclusive font inspired by the venue’s eclectic elegance, used across digital and print touchpoints.
Automation & Tech Stack:
Connected systems via Zapier and Airtable
Managed booking flows using Zenchef
Automated member onboarding via Google Sheets
Performance Optimization: Set up key metrics and ensured fast load times and smooth navigation.

✨ Key Results
