Architecture Studio France

Founded in Paris in 1973, Architecture-Studio brings together about two hundred people, around 12 partners of all generations. This team of 25 different nationalities is composed of architects, urban planners, designers and interior designers. Architecture Studio has built itself upon the will of a will for broad-mindedness and group philosophy. Its foundations lie on work group and shared knowledge, with the will to go beyond individuality for the benefit of dialogue and confrontation. Thus, the addition of individual knowledge turns into wide creative potential.
