# Cloud-Like French Restaurants Hamonic+Masson & Associés Designs the Mon Nuage Structure By Amy Duong | Published 2025-07-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mon-nuage References: [bollinger-grohmann](https://www.bollinger-grohmann.com/)  French design firm Hamonic+Masson & Associés has just completed the [Monsieur Claude](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsieur-dior) restaurant design in Paris with a unique sculpture dubbed Mon Nuage. It is a [cloud-like metal structure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suspended-lighting-installation) made from stainless steel tubes -- 3,240 to be exact. It is raised in the air and this was done with the engineering firm Bollinger+Grohmann. This is developed as a public viewpoint and a landmark for the residential district on the western Parisian suburb. Hamonic+Masson & Associés architect Arnaud Grenié spoke about the design project, "We created an architectural folly to create intensity and a focal point that would stimulate public life in the neighbourhood. With its sculptural effect, we definitely aimed to create a bold signature on the square, to convey new emotion and poetry to the site."
