With a surface area of 85m² , La Ruche operates as a traditional general bookstore while also doubling as a vibrant learning hub for students at l'Ecole  de la Librairie . It provides a space for independent booksellers to meet, read and learn . 

The layouts are designed to offer great flexibility of use. The spacious open area with a ceiling height of 6 meters can transform into a space for conferences, roundtable discussions, or screenings.

Low furniture allows for various ways of presenting books. The bookshelves rest on a concrete base that detaches from the walls to become seating, stairs, or display containers.

The flight of the bee is a solid oak lighting element that traces a path, leading us from the facade into the bookstore by following the monumental staircase.
