An exceptional new campus
The Paris Campus will be an ultra-contemporary new campus located in Meudon; a customized school with the aim of teaching and promoting world-renowned gastronomic expertise, which is set to open in September 2020.
The interior spaces inspired by the four natural elements open around a gathering point designed to favor collaboration and co-working, a space for meeting and sharing. These will include a “knowledge center”, a sensory analysis room and workshops dedicated to the culinary and the pastry arts. Arte Charpentier Architectes is developing the building as well as the external and interior facilities, in conjunction with real-estate developer Covivio. The internal design of the kitchens will be done by BEGC and the decoration of the bar and two immersion restaurants, which will be open to the public, by interior designer Jouin Manku. Vegetables and aromatic plants will also be grown in the school’s garden, aimed at developing and refining taste.
By partnering with Sommet Education, École Ducasse intends to perpetuate the excellence of its heritage in gastronomy and accelerate its international development. For its part, Swiss-based Sommet Education entailing the Glion and Les Roches educational institutions, which include six campuses in Switzerland, UK, Spain and China, is expanding its educational offer and the range of courses available, dedicated to providing the best education in hospitality management. For Benoît-Etienne Domenget, CEO of Sommet Education it is “the winning combination of the excellence in French gastronomy and the performance of the Swiss educational model combining theory and practice”.
