Paris-based Serero Architects have claimed victory in the open competition to redesign any of the Eiffel Tower’s public reception and access areas.  Serero’s project will extend the top floor plate of the tower by grafting a high performance carbon Kevlar structure on it. The structure will be temporarily bolted to the slab without requiring any modification of the existing structure. It will expand the usable floor area from 280 m2 to 580m2.

I am an architect and interior designer based in Mumbai.
I think this is a fantastic idea, if it doesn't affect the main structure. It doesnt seem to change the looks drastically. Quite proportionate
