The ice rink returned to the first floor

After two years of work, the first-floor makeover of the monument was finally finished. The company behind the Eiffel Tower’s operation wanted to enliven the terrace with an ice rink and open-air bar. Crystal Group won the tender thanks to an aesthetic concept conceived around transparency, reflection and the colour red. In perfect harmony with the spirit of the new renovations.
