Are you tired of the dominant architectural works imagined by Georges Eugène Haussmann? There are actually surprises at every street corner, you just have to dare to take a detour... With some medieval or Renaissance-inspired houses, you can travel through time. The green facades offer a touch of nature. And further on, mosaics and vibrant colors contrast with a monochrome environment. You can find these little architectural gems in the book "Paris, unusual buildings" available from Parigramme editions. Here is a small selection for your enjoyment!
