About

We are a bilingual architecture and design studio based in Uzés, Gard. We specialise in residential renovations with an emphasis on furniture design and architectural detailing. With over 20 years in the industry we build spaces that convey a clear identity and are easy to live in.


I design with attention to phenomena; light, time, raison d’être, sensations of discovery, texture, sound, repetition… It’s a Humanistic approach – considering how the body reads its environment and how subtle details create a general experience.
