the OFF paris seine is designed by gèrard ronzatti / seine design; comprised of 58 rooms including four suites, a tapa and cocktail bar, a plunge pool and summer terrace area. the vessel-like structure is topped with a slanting zinc roof that opens the façades outwards to the water, while a central glass ceiling invites natural light into the interior. set 10 meters out from the riverbank via walkways and a marina, sections of the façade can be accessed by the public; this celebrates the transparency of volumes, while the areas belonging to the hotel is marked with a silver-wood finish which blends naturally into the environment.
