Project description

Located in the interior of a block in a former printing house in Part-Dieu, the project provides a quiet, inward-facing working environment. The premises are organized around a patio that brings in uniform northern light. Wooden furniture structures the space and incorporates the framework supporting the mezzanine floor. Workstations are arranged in small alcoves in the main area, while meeting rooms are positioned at each end, facing back onto the patio.
