Imagine yourself, going to a bar, and go in igloo and interact with sounds and visual effects.
The full igloo is actually a chamber that is also used as a projection screen. In the center of this chamber you find a machine that is equiped with sensors. You can create or just enjoy the projected “dreams”.

the authentic laws of the energy are not always conformal with the secret laws of the harmony…” Gustave Eiffel

The Eiffel tower in Paris suffers from its success. Since its creation the amount of visitors coming to reach its top has increased to reach its limit capacity. 6.5 millions People wait between 35 minutes to 1H10 to reach the elevators. The floor area of each level decreases with the height because of the tower geometry resulting in very long waiting lines and crowd management problems.

In celebration of the 120th birthday of the tower, the Société d’Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel decided to restructure the public reception and access areas of the tower. The proposal of SERERO Architects aims to create a temporary horizontal extension of the third floor of the tower in order to increase the quality of the access of the public as well as experiencing the fantastic 360 degrees sight of Paris.

If you ask us, the Eifel Tower is beautiful as it is. The symbol is more important then ” 6.5 millions People wait between 35 minutes to 1H10 to reach the elevators”. That is just making money.

Type R - Rumor
This information is a rumor. The probability to see the surface is less than 70%. And I sincerely hope it won’t. Otherwise I will have to take another set of pictures in Paris, now, with the new Eifel Tower Upgraded.
