Post office

   In 1906, while the castle of Dijon is finally leveled, the City gives to the French State a plot of land to build a Post Office. In Dijon, Louis Perreau is associated with the architect of the administration to build an edifice of academic style, but innovative in its design. The classic stone cladding is attached to a metal structure. This explains these three large doors with windows and a balustraded balcony supported by high consoles of stone. This set is surmounted by a decoration of polychrome sculptures and mosaics with two medallions of mosaics decorated with the rooster, symbol of the French Republic.

Place your bets

   The casino of the spa town  La Bourboule is built by Mr. Chardon from 1892. Extension works begin in 1928: the symmetry is respected, a balcony resting on columns is added over the entire length, the elevations are decorated with mosaics enhanced with gold floral motifs.

In the center, the La Bourboule coat of arms.

Herbs

A mosaic-decorated  shop  is created for the herbalist Pierre Tourneux in 1934 at the corner of No. 26 rue Saint-Martin - 36 rue Saint-Aubin in Angers (France): the monogram with intertwined letters CT on the threshold of the entrance door to the store probably refers to this owner (and his wife?). The design of the storefront is due to the architect Ernest Bricard and the decor to the famous  mosaicist Isidore Odorico, in its characteristic Art  Déco style..
The herbalism activity stopped in 2006, and the shop has since been converted to a fashion store...

  The initial look of the shop can be seen hereunder.
