Our interior design agency
AGENCY PROFILE.
“Stepping out of the box” is a natural and assumed desire. This approach is essential in order to present you with relevant suggestions in line with your project.
Founded by Eric Watbot, the agency collaborates with architects, designers, technical design offices, project managers, craftsmen and space creation professionals.
Based on the principle that all design, renovation or construction challenges require the same problem-solving approach, we approach the project study of a residential layout, a restaurant, or offices in the same way that we would approach a hotel concept or custom furniture.
We believe in a pragmatic approach to the search for solutions and believe that new ideas are born from the action of open minds and the know-how of passionate women and men.
We speak English / Hablamos español
PROJECT STUDY, ARRANGEMENT, RENOVATION, WORK MONITORING.
Collaboration is a key part of our process. We maintain a culture of creativity and draw inspiration from our customers, with our experience and the diversity of backgrounds of our partners of building professionals as well as our extended family of artists, manufacturers and distributors.
We take a holistic approach to design, where each element fits together, creating a strong overall impression.
We are storytellers and experience creators, in that our exploration does not begin and end with the completion of a renovation, layout or object, but rather when a person interacts with it. the project and that this experience becomes part of their way of life.
WE CREATE INNOVATIVE, COMFORTABLE & FUNCTIONAL ENVIRONMENTS
Between rigor and creativity
We consider each project as a unique challenge that requires great attention, rigor and dedication.
As quick to compose the harmony of places to live as to define the image and layout of a hotel, a restaurant, a boutique, offices… or even to design unique furniture with inspired lines, our main activities are essentially dedicated to the Development of our Private and Professional Living Spaces.
Through common sense, rigor and informed creativity, our know-how provides a positive vision that is both clear and multiple of our multicultural societies. At the basis of each of your projects, we guide you in clarifying your objectives and we define all your needs in order to contribute to the adequacy of your desires and requests with the specificity of the locations.
