When furniture takes up residence in royal quarters
For its third edition, the AR(t]CHIPEL festival invites contemporary design to take its place in the majestic setting of the Royal Castle of Blois. After showcasing Renaissance furniture this summer, the castle is now hosting iconic pieces from the Centre Pompidou collection.
Discover three exceptional works of design: Ron Arad's sculptural Clover and Rocker MT3 armchairs, combining innovation and elegance, and Gianni Arnaudo's poetic Déjeuner sur l'herbe table, a joyful nod to nature and the Renaissance.

In the Queen's Gallery, contemporary furniture and princely decor interact to prolong the festive and daring spirit of the court, as if Catherine de Medici herself had come to sit there. A permanent Renaissance, to be experienced in the heart of Blois, to rediscover the art of living... differently.
From September 27 to November 2
No additional charge on top of the admission price
