The interiors were designed to create a place where old meets new and the contemporary meets the classical. The Parisian building becomes a playground and a canvas to express the brand’s colourfulness and pop style. The original decorated ceilings, boiseries, stairs and fireplaces of value are embraced with respect, renovated and enhanced by the new design.
Through these new spaces, the Parisian style is re-invented with two main approaches: first, as a blank canvas with muted and subtle tones where, like in a watercolour painting, the identity of the office sometimes pops up or is discovered behind a fluted glass partition, and second, as a decorated background where the colour and graphics of the office’s brand identity are superimposed to give it life and to make company space.
In the warm light of Paris, the brand’s colour palette of primary tones expands to all shades of colour, from pastels to the deepest tones. Parisian chic meets office shock.
