The Grand Salon in the Maison des Etudiants de l'Asie du Sud Est, or South East Asian House, originally called Maison de l'Indochine, designed by Pierre Martin and Maurice Vieu and inaugurated in 1930, in the Cite Internationale Universitaire de Paris, in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, France. The room is decorated in black, red and gold, with a clear South East Asian influence in the lantern, latticed screens, buddhist statue and patterns. The CIUP or Cite U was founded in 1925 after the First World War by Andre Honnorat and Emile Deutsch de la Meurthe to create a place of cooperation and peace amongst students and researchers from around the world. It consists of 5,800 rooms in 40 residences, accepting another 12,000 student residents each year. Picture by Manuel Cohen
