MÉTROPOLE COLLECTION
2014
M ÉT R O P O L E C O L L E C T I O N
M etropolis; a term used rather vaguely in modern days but that is still widely
recognized as a term of endearment when describing a city which had grown to
become a cultural, business and technological hub.
We often tend to forget that a metropolis owes its growth and success to its citizen,
who have over the centuries injected time and effort in creating a modern day
mosaic through its ever evolving architecture and design. Like a fingerprint, no two
metropolis could ever be the same, having being influenced through the span of
time by so many diverse factors.
Individuals from the world over, who migrate to such metropolitan areas bringing
along with them their cultural heritage, adding to these great works of modern art
an international flair. Such a metropolis ends up being a living portfolio of centuries
of evolution, foreign influences, diversity and excellence in architecture and design.
We have chosen several of these modern day metropolis, who have over time strived
and excelled in becoming design and lifestyle landmarks. The Métropole Collection is
an homage to each of these cities, a sign of gratitude to their designers, architects,
artists and creators who have given the world so much beauty.
M étropole : terme utilisé de façon plutôt vague en ces temps modernes, mais
encore largement reconnu comme un terme affectueux lorsqu’il décrit une ville
qui est devenue un centre culturel, d’affaires et technologique.
Nous avons souvent tendance à oublier qu’une métropole doit sa croissance et son
succès à ses citoyens, qui, au fil des siècles, ont consacré temps et énergie pour
créer une mosaïque de l’ère moderne qui est le résultat d’une architecture et d’une
conception visuelle en constante évolution. Comme dans le cas d’une empreinte
digitale, il n’y a pas deux métropoles pareilles, chacune ayant subi l’influence de
nombreux facteurs divers au fil du temps.
Les personnes provenant des quatre coins de la planète qui immigrent dans les
métropoles y apportent leur patrimoine culturel, ce qui ajoute un style international
à ces grandes œuvres d’art moderne. Ainsi, ces métropoles se transforment en un
portfolio vivant qui est le fruit de siècles d’évolution, d’influences étrangères, de la
diversité et de l’excellence de leur architecture et de leur conception visuelle.
Nous avons choisi plusieurs de ces métropoles des temps modernes, qui, au fil du
temps, se sont évertuées à devenir des références en matière de conception visuelle
et de style de vie et qui ont excellé à le devenir. La Métropole Collection rend hommage à chacune de ces villes, ce qui constitue une preuve de gratitude envers leurs
concepteurs visuels, leurs architectes, leurs artistes et leurs créateurs qui ont rendu
le monde si beau.

“ Une métropole, c’est la synthèse des activités de l’homme, une preuve de son
génie. La providence a fourni les matériaux ; ses créateurs les ont utilisés.”
