Comments

The architect distinguished two parts: a building on the quay, used for offices and apartments, and, in the axis of the composition, the coinage workshops, organized around several courtyards and aligned along rue Guénégaud.
The quayside façade appears to have been inspired by Boullée's engraved design.
The door on the quay leads into a vestibule divided into five naves by Doric columns supporting coffered vaults. To the right, a three-ramp grand staircase leads to the salons on the noble floor.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

L'architecte a distingué deux parties : un bâtiment sur le quai, à usage de bureaux et d'appartements et, dans l'axe de la composition, les ateliers de monnayage, organisés autour de plusieurs cours et aligné le long de la rue Guénégaud.
La façade sur le quai semble avoir été inspirée par le projet de Boullée, qui avait été gravé.
La porte sur le quai donne accès à un vestibule divisé en cinq nefs par des colonnes doriques supportant des voûtes à caissons. À droite, un escalier d'honneur à trois rampes mène aux salons de l'étage noble.
