The move of the Paris headquarters of Clyde & Co, an international law firm, from a Haussmann-style building to a rationalist, purely Sixties-style building, still in the 8th arrondissement, is by no means a sudden or hasty choice. For at least three years now, Chambers Architects has been studying the question of relocation, testing out a wide range of hypotheses and locations. The program, [...]

Shell and core, here and now! 0

Shell and core, here and now! On the streets of Paris, at the foot of office buildings under construction, we sometimes see skips full of false ceiling tiles or rolls of brand-new carpet... at best put back on the market. Why is this distressing sight an environmental and economic nonsense at a time when [...]

We have worked with Savills GB and Savills France on a number of projects in recent years. The latter's most recent commission is a special one, this time for the interior design of its own Paris headquarters. And so is the question posed by the real estate group. It obviously expects a state-of-the-art working environment, as [...]

Macquarie a giorno 0

For over a year now, the staff of Australian bank Macquarie have been working in their French headquarters on the Champs-Élysées Marcel-Dassault traffic circle, and know from experience what it's like to enjoy daylight in the office. Chambers Architects has made a point of letting them benefit from natural daylight as much as from the exceptional view [...].

Stay or go?

Stay or go ? 0

This question has recently arisen for many of our customers, who are faced with growing or changing workforces, particularly since the boom in teleworking. Should they stay in their existing premises and, if possible, adapt them to the new needs of the company and its employees? Should this idea be ruled out from the outset [...]?

Franklin, IGH becomes ERP 0

Chambers architects is currently working on a project for Soremi, a real estate company based in the Paris region, to convert office space into a higher education establishment. The project is being developed on the two floors of the base of the Franklin Tower in La Défense.

In the interior design project for the Paris headquarters of the international law firm Norton Rose Fulbright, the above is at least as interesting as the following... Because before the design process was launched and then implemented, a decisive game was played between the partners and Chambers architects. The decision to remain [...]

Canned avocados 0

Like major companies in the tech, media and banking sectors, international law firms are confronted with a profound rethinking of the work environment and its uses. They are doing so, however, with strong professional and cultural specificities: individual work, face-to-face (and sometimes informal) and remote collaborative work, confidentiality of reception [...].

Concorde F, Madeleine D, Opéra E... the Collines de l'Arche buildings in La Défense, owned by Cofia, offer vast reception areas. This was not the case, until recently, for the last of the four, Opéra C. The challenge presented to Chambers Architects was therefore simple: to magnify the [...]

Over the past decade, and sometimes even before, Chambers has designed the French offices of Proskauer Rose, DLA Piper, K&L Gates, McDermott Will & Emery, Paul Hastings, Morgan Lewis & Bockius... and right now of Norton Rose Fulbright, Hogan Lovells and Pinsent Masons. All among the major international Anglo-Saxon law firms. The trust [...]
