Designing Elegant, Fluid, and Warm Living Spaces
The firm supports its clients in the complete design of their interior spaces, particularly in exceptional properties such as townhouses, Norman houses, manors, and seaside villas. Each project is conceived as a unique living space, where aesthetics, comfort, and daily use are carefully balanced.
A Attentive Listening to Understand Your Way of Life
Everything begins with attentive listening:
- a first meeting at the agency to get acquainted,
- followed by a second meeting at the property concerned by the project.
Based on a list of recurring and personalized questions (primary or secondary residence, number of people, ages, lifestyle habits, specific expectations), the firm analyzes the purpose of the spaces and how you actually use them. This phase allows for a precise identification of your needs, desires… and sometimes even what you had not yet articulated.
Reorganizing Volumes for Fluid Circulation
The restructuring of an interior begins with an honest assessment of dysfunctions: poor circulation, lack of light, underutilized spaces… The team focuses on objectifying usage problems to propose new living spaces that are coherent and comfortable.
To achieve this, the firm uses:
- precise laser measurements,
- observation campaigns according to times of the day and seasons,
- a detailed analysis of natural light and external views.
The firm's philosophy is based on:
- fluid circulation between different living spaces,
- a clear identification of day and night spaces,
- distribution plans that separate living times while remaining coherent,
- consideration of external views and work on terraces and gardens to create a true interior/exterior connection in continuity.
Custom Layout Plans in 2D and 3D
From the sketch phase, clients benefit from a very concrete projection of their future interior. The firm develops plans:
- in 2D for overall readability of space organization,
- in 3D to allow for quick immersion in the project.
The proposals include:
- 3D views and a virtual tour of the spaces from the computer station at the agency,
- possible presentations in external meetings via iPad,
- the possibility to offer multiple layout versions if the first does not fully meet expectations.
During the survey of existing conditions, the firm takes into account all technical constraints:
- fluid networks,
- structure (framework, load-bearing walls, etc.),
- standards and regulatory constraints.
Projects are developed using professional tools such as ARCHICAD and PHOTOSHOP, to provide clear and realistic renderings.
Natural Materials and Timeless Color Palettes
The firm prioritizes natural materials, chosen for:
- the durability of the works,
- their coherence with an environmentally respectful philosophy,
- their bio-sourced and recyclable nature as much as possible.
The firm's signature is also reflected in natural color palettes, designed to withstand the test of time without going out of style.
To help clients visualize, the team creates:
- material boards,
- samples of materials, requested directly from artisans and partners,
- a selection of local suppliers and multidisciplinary teams encompassing all trades.
Depending on the nature of the project, artisanal crafts may also be associated: stained glass artists, wrought iron craftsmen, decorative painters, stone masons, upholsterers…
Furniture, Lighting, and Decorative Universes
When clients wish, the firm offers a selection of furniture, lighting, and accessories. It can produce mood boards and complete decorative ideas, while allowing the client the freedom to purchase the sourced furniture directly.
Light – both natural and artificial – is a central focus of reflection. Each project is studied based on:
- the exposure of the existing or to-be-built structure,
- the function of the rooms (kitchen, living room, bedrooms, etc.),
- the desired atmospheres for each living space.
The firm can also design complete decorative universes, for a fully coherent interior, from the layout plan to the final decorative touch.
Custom Furniture Creation
For projects that require it, the firm designs all custom furniture, in detail:
- fitted kitchens,
- libraries,
- sideboards,
- dressing rooms,
- TV furniture,
- furniture for children's rooms, etc.
The realization is then entrusted to partner workshops, notably the DESPAUX workshop or the company LESOUHAITIER, recognized for the quality of their craftsmanship.
An emblematic example: Villa Holisty in Villerville, where all the furniture was designed by the firm and then custom-made by the company LESOUHAITIER.
The role of the firm encompasses:
- detailed design,
- selection of materials and colors,
- oversight of the realization with the designated company.
3D Visuals & Atmospheres: Projecting Before the Work
For each project, visual boards are created with:
- 3D views,
- a 3D virtual tour from the computer station at the agency.
The atmospheres are worked on through:
- the choice of colors,
- the selection of natural materials,
- a particular attention to light and textures.
These visuals can be integrated into the site to concretely illustrate the quality of the studies and projects proposed.
Complete Follow-Up and Coordination of Artisans
The firm ensures a complete follow-up of the site, from the structural work to the installation of lighting and curtains. Orders, deliveries, and installations are carried out by the artisans, but the overall coherence of the project remains managed by the agency.
The firm works with trusted partner artisans, chosen for:
- their technical expertise,
- their reliability,
- the appropriateness of their skills to the nature of the project.
This rigorous selection guarantees the fidelity between the validated project and its final realization. Every detail counts, so that the delivered spaces fully reflect the initial intention: harmonious, durable interiors that are deeply adapted to the lives of those who inhabit them.
