“Architecture is a universal language. It is a matter of geometry, but also of spirituality. Depending on the circumstances, one may choose a square or a triangle, but ultimately the result should be a place that speaks to the human heart.” Tadao Ando, Architect

MS. TARROU
Let's discuss your project and create a bespoke architecture that reflects your lifestyle.
LET'S TALKAbove all, we hope your decision will be inspired by the emotional connection you feel with our projects and our approach to architecture. We believe this first impression is then reinforced by more than 30 years of experience in designing contemporary homes and timber buildings, as well as by the expertise and commitment of the trusted partners who support us throughout every stage of the project.
We work on projects of all sizes, provided that architectural design is at the heart of the commission.
Every project is unique and deserves a bespoke architectural response, carefully tailored to the brief, the site, and the client’s aspirations. However, we do not undertake renovation projects that involve neither an extension nor a significant architectural transformation.
Yes. We support you throughout every stage of the design process, from the initial sketches to the planning permission application, and then through the preparation of the detailed construction documents required for contractor tendering.
Depending on the project’s location and nature, the tendering process and construction supervision are then managed by one of our trusted project management partners or by a qualified local professional with whom we collaborate.
We design projects throughout France and internationally. Our main areas of activity are the Paris region and the Rhône-Alpes region, where our offices are located.
Construction supervision is carried out by trusted project management partners or experienced local professionals in the region where the project is built.
The main difference lies in the design approach. An architect-designed home is created specifically for its site, taking into account the surrounding environment, your lifestyle, and your budget.
We also offer a collection of contemporary house designs created by our practice. While based on established architectural concepts, each home is carefully adapted to its specific site through its positioning, window layouts, and selected interior arrangements, ensuring genuine architectural quality.
The cost of an architect-designed home depends on many factors, including its size, specification, complexity, site conditions, and location.
As a general guide, construction costs for a bespoke contemporary home typically start at around €3,000 (incl. VAT) per square metre of living space. This does not include ancillary areas, external landscaping, site servicing, or the fees of the architect and engineering consultants.
We give priority to durable, long-lasting materials and, whenever possible, to bio-based materials with a lower environmental impact.
Timber naturally plays a central role in many of our projects, but we also combine it with concrete, stone, glass, steel, and other carefully selected materials to create contemporary, elegant architecture that responds sensitively to its surroundings.
