An invited competition was organized to propose a temporary hall in front of La Tour Eiffel which replaces the Grand Palais, a large historic site built in 1900, consists of an exhibition hall and museum complex located at the Champs-Élysées during its renovation works. It was also foreseen to have the structure used for the Olympic / Paralympic games on 2024 before it is dismantled and relocated to another site. Our proposal was to replicate the original Grand Palais with a paper tube structure, which forms a vault spanning over 35m, and a dome of 37m high. A special attention was paid on the façade/roof design to fulfill the extremely high acoustic requirement. The structure was designed as a fully modular system which allows reassembling in different configurations.
