THE MYTHICAL ORIENT EXPRESS ACCORDING TO MAXIME D'ANGEAC

Since 1883, the mythical Orient Express has been a dream for all generations. The architect Maxime D'Angeac has taken on the challenge of bringing this train into line with the codes of contemporary luxury while keeping its 1920s look.

Decorated in the past by the greatest names such as René Prou or René Lalique, the architect wanted to pay tribute to this French artisan. Indeed, a great admirer of Art Deco, Maxime d'Angeac highlights the finest French skills such as cabinetmaking, goldsmithing and marquetry. The new Orient Express, which will be presented in Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games, will begin its great journey from the West to the East in 2025. It promises a luxurious interior made of mahogany, velvet and silk, all in a poetic ambience. The Orient Express' gravity-defying decor will inspire exchange moments, fancy dinners and the admiration of magnificent landscapes from the window.

Everything has been designed to make travelers feel at their best in these trains made of suites, dining cars, and bar cars. The rooms are designed to change atmosphere from night to day, with removable transformable decorations. Comfort and luxury characterize the Orient Express, as every detail is meticulously chosen and brings softness and harmony to one of the most majestic trains ever designed.
