VINCI Construction continues to collaborate with the LVMH group through its subsidiary Petit, which is carrying out the works to convert the former Musée des Arts et Traditions Populaires into the future Maison LVMH–Arts Talents Patrimoine (arts, talents and heritage) in the Bois de Boulogne woods between the Louis Vuitton Foundation and the Jardin d’Acclimatation botanical gardens (in the 16th arrondissement).

Almost 90% of the concrete used on this project is Exegy® low-carbon and very-low-carbon concrete. The works involve reconfiguring the ground-floor and basement spaces, and the original steel-frame tower, which will house a 15,000 sq. metre venue to showcase the LVMH group’s fields of expertise and know-how.
