Les Nouvelles Galleries / Manuelle Gautrand Architecture

The Galeries Lafayette department store building in Annecy is one of those unexpected, almost insolent pieces of architectural heritage within an otherwise relatively homogenous town, notable for its unique history. Designed in the 1970s, the building was erected on the site with no awareness of its surroundings, heedless to context, form, alignment, or density.
