    This is a refined, elegant project in the Capital 8 building on the edge of the Parc Monceau. The architectural design is minimalist and controlled, creating a refined working environment conducive to concentration and reflection. The quality of the materials and finishing conveys a discreet image of prestige. The workspaces and reception areas are the architectural expression of the firm's reputation for high standards. The project combines noble, timeless materials with clean, contemporary lines. Carrara marble, woven leather, polished aluminium and natural wood are highlighted and framed by the delicate structure of the glass partitions. Despite the low ceiling heights and modest floor area of the building, the quest for perfection and the transparency of the spaces give the building a luminous, serene atmosphere.
