We support companies in the delivery of their workplace projects, whether it involves a new office location, a workplace refurbishment, or an expansion of existing premises.
No. Our strength lies in covering the entire project, from the initial strategy and design phases through to project delivery. You benefit from a single point of contact, responsible for coordinating every stage and ensuring the success of your project.
Everything begins with a listening and analysis phase. We assess your needs, ways of working, and constraints to build a strategy tailored to your objectives before any investment or commitment is made.
We involve employees from the very beginning through participatory workshops and regular check-ins. After the move-in, we gather their feedback to refine what can be improved and confirm what is working effectively.
No, we don’t have a specific “artistic signature,” but all our projects share one thing: they are as unique as our clients themselves. We don’t just create aesthetically pleasing spaces; we design environments that truly reflect the identity of our clients.
We implement a progressive and detailed cost planning approach from the very beginning, consulting multiple suppliers for each trade. This gives you clear budget visibility at every stage and allows you to make informed decisions with full knowledge of the financial impact.
Yes. We systematically integrate sustainable options into our projects, including responsible materials, environmentally committed suppliers, and resource optimization strategies. We can take this approach as far as you wish, depending on your objectives and ambitions.

No. Our projects are on average 20% more cost-effective than traditional approaches, thanks to our unique methodology: a strategic planning phase that establishes a clear budget framework, progressive cost planning that ensures full transparency, and a commitment to a fixed and final project price.
As early as possible. We get involved before any real estate commitments are made to help you ask the right questions and avoid costly mistakes. The earlier we are engaged, the greater our ability to positively influence the project outcome.
We combine interviews with your teams, an analysis of your ways of working, and a utilization study of your current spaces. This allows us to size your project accurately, avoiding both overestimation and underestimation of your actual space requirements.
A Stay or Move study is an objective comparative analysis between staying in your current premises—potentially with a refurbishment—and relocating to new spaces. We evaluate both options from financial, operational, and human perspectives to help you make the most informed decision.
Yes. A successful project strategy involves all key stakeholders. We engage leadership teams in the project’s critical decisions to ensure the strategy aligns with your company’s long-term vision.
Yes. Our process is designed to incorporate your feedback at every key stage before moving on to the next phase. The 2D and 3D visualizations we produce are specifically intended to facilitate adjustments before any final commitment is made.
The budget is considered from the very start of the design phase. We tailor our recommendations—furniture, materials, and layouts—to align with your financial framework, without compromising the quality of the final result.
We start with your visual identity, values, and company culture to translate your brand into tangible design decisions—from colors, materials, and furniture to signage and the overall employee experience.
We work independently and select suppliers—whether for furniture or any other aspect of the project—based on your needs, budget, and aesthetic requirements.
Through progressive cost planning established from the earliest project stages and continuously updated throughout the process. We consult multiple contractors for each work package and immediately alert you if any risk of budget overrun is identified.
We anticipate potential issues during the planning phase and maintain a regular presence on site throughout the project. If unexpected challenges arise, we quickly implement the necessary adjustments to minimize their impact on the overall schedule.
No. We act as your single point of contact and manage all relationships with contractors, consultants, and specialist trades. You do not need to worry about the day-to-day coordination of the project.
We carry out a comprehensive inspection of all completed works before handover. Any identified defects or outstanding items are documented and monitored until they are fully resolved, ensuring the final delivery meets the agreed specifications and expectations.
Not necessarily. The true return on investment should be assessed not only through the initial project cost, but also through the savings generated over the following 5 to 15 years. Sustainable does not mean premium or expensive. A well-designed sustainable project can cost the same as—or sometimes even less than—a conventional one.
Absolutely. Sustainability is one component of the project, and it does not come at the expense of employee well-being—quite the opposite. In many cases, sustainable workplaces provide a better experience for users through improved air quality, increased greenery, and carefully selected materials.
Not necessarily. A thoughtful, low-carbon project starts with asking the right questions: it’s not “what’s the newest?” but “what minimizes material use and energy consumption?” Demolition and reconstruction can be one option, but it is by no means the only solution.
There are several measurable indicators that can demonstrate a project’s environmental commitments, including carbon footprint assessments, environmental certifications, energy performance, and the rate of furniture and material reuse or recovery. These metrics provide clear and tangible evidence of the project’s sustainability outcomes.
Any lease milestone is an opportunity to negotiate and optimize your rent, even during a fixed-term lease. Planning ahead allows you to make the right decision and secure the perfect space.
Do you have the qualified resources and the available time to carry out the study? Our team of experts brings an external perspective to help clearly define your needs, challenges, and priorities, ensuring a well-informed decision-making process.
During the Stay or Move study phase, our work is conducted with complete confidentiality. Neither landlords, real estate agents, nor property owners will be informed of the project until the strategy has been validated and a decision has been made.
That is exactly the purpose of the Stay or Move study: to define the project’s needs and strategy based on your business challenges and anticipated growth. No design or architectural work is carried out during this phase.
The goal is not to force employees into a specific way of working, but to support them in co-creating the working model that best meets the needs of both the business and its people.
Exactly. Aesthetics alone won’t transform your spaces. We design environments tailored to employees’ ways of working, incorporating features and functionalities that simply don’t exist in remote work.
More than just an attractive environment, we create a compelling reason for employees to return to the office by designing spaces that foster collaboration and social interaction.
Bringing teams back to the office is not just about providing a desk for everyone—it’s about creating spaces that meet their needs and support their interactions while at work.
We create spaces tailored to your business, culture, and ways of working—spaces that reflect your identity and become a driver of engagement, performance, and talent retention.
We assess the return on investment of your workplace project to design spaces that support performance and help attract and recruit talent.
Redesigning your workplace is not only about attracting talent but also about retaining it, by providing an environment that boosts productivity and enhances employee well-being.
That is precisely the purpose of the initial consulting phase: to understand the expectations and needs of each team and design a workplace that reflects everyone’s ways of working and usage patterns.
We don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach; every project is unique and tailored to the needs, challenges, ways of working, and vision of each client.
We work as a project team with a single project manager who selects and coordinates the specialists best suited to your project, ensuring that all necessary expertise is available throughout the process.
Our progressive cost planning process allows you to see the required project costs well in advance and guides the strategy to ensure your allocated budget is respected.
