France’s Culture Ministry announces an international team of architects and landscape designers to deliver the Louvre Museum’s planned renovation in Paris. Multiple outlets report that the selected team includes STUDIOS Architecture Paris and Selldorf Architects. The revamp is presented as a large-scale project aimed at addressing long-running issues affecting the museum and upgrading key visitor and exhibition functions. The ministry’s announcement says the plan includes creating a new entrance for the Louvre. It also includes provisions for a dedicated space for the Mona Lisa, reflecting the museum’s goal of reconfiguring how the work is displayed for visitors. Outlets also place the project’s budget in a similar range, citing an overhaul expected to cost roughly €700–€800 million, with at least one source describing a comparable figure in dollars. The ministry frames the work as a comprehensive redevelopment that will involve both architectural and landscape design components, with the selected firms forming the core of the delivery team.
