The Loop is a new architectural island / bridge on Seine river, which is built of narrative and multifunctional public spaces. It is an environment engaging all the human senses – it gives the visitors and passers by a pleasure of looking at, listening to, feeling, touching and moving through architecture and nature. As a system of ramps, accompanied by elevators, it enables people of different abilities to pass, visit, move closer or move away, escape, go round or go into, move up and down. The Loop is generally solved on two levels, what helps integrating it with the existing networks of paths and places. The structure incorporates into its program the historical bridge Passarelle Debilly and a sequence of terraced gardens embraced by two wings of the Palais de Tokyo as well as a new Green Belt surrounding the Exhibition and Visitors Center.
