Forum des Halles Interior, Paris — Glass Facade and Canopy View

4 October 2017 · Paris

Forum des Halles seen from the inside out. The floor-to-ceiling glass wall frames the Canopée's steel lattice roof against a clear Paris sky, with the old church tower of Saint-Eustache just visible beyond the escalators. People at low tables in the foreground sit in cool interior shadow while the world outside moves at its own pace — the architecture holds both in the same frame without choosing between them.
