A little red cabin, large wooden tables waiting for guests, shrubs and trees that make you forget the city… café FIKA takes over our entire courtyard and invites you to drop in during the summer.

The red cabin conjures up cool woodland air, outings to the seaside and walks in the fields. It’s a Swedish icon and even its colour has a name: Falun red, named after the place where the pigment is made. Here we present a revisited contemporary version of the cabin standing in the centre of our courtyard in the middle of the Marais like an invitation to embark on a journey.

FIKA is thus extending its outdoor seating area into the courtyard, offering a seasonal menu and drinks until dusk.

From 5 September onwards, the cabin will form part of a larger artwork titled ForĂŞts astrales.
