View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Frank la RivièreOur design approach is centered on the research into the relation between People, Object and Space, from which a specific design strategy emerges for each project. Built results show our thoroughly contemporary design language, with recurring themes such as lightness, transparency, continuous flow of space and trueness to the nature of the materials used. The aim is to create well-crafted, richly varied environments that are responsive to the needs of its occupiers and result in intricate spatial experiences.
