New to Paris? Buying from abroad?

We speak English. We’ll handle the French side.

Planning rules, building co-ownership approvals, quotes from French contractors, site meetings: we take care of it and explain each step in plain English. You get regular updates in English, with photos and video calls, wherever you are.

You don’t need to speak a word of French to renovate in Paris with us.

We design interiors that feel like you and stand the test of time. Light first. Materials next. Then every square metre, planned around the life you will lead there.

Before you buy

Buying

Viewing a property? We cost the work and check feasibility before you make an offer, so you buy with your eyes open.

Partial or full

Gain square metres

Extension

Extensions, added storeys: we handle everything, from the planning application to handover.

01

Bring in more light.

Opening up a wall, moving a kitchen, choosing one white over another. Light changes everything, and it can be designed.

02

Rethink the volumes.

Simpler circulation, an extra room, a mezzanine, an extension. We look at your place as if it were empty.

03

Make every square metre count.

Mezzanines, built-in storage, bespoke furniture: every corner earns its keep, nothing clutters.

For businesses too

Offices, bars and shops.

The same care as in a home, for places that welcome people.

The studio

A team of interior architects in Paris, and one point of contact from the first sketch to handing over the keys.

We design, cost, choose the craftspeople with you and supervise the work. You keep the fun part. We keep the schedules, the quotes and the surprises.
