At the present time the building is occupied by the Contretype Photographic organisation which is devoted to the promotion of creative photography by organising, in particular, exhibitions.

The living room has a large window circled with stain glasses. Inside decoration and furniture was done by the famous Nancy artists Gallé and Majorelle
