Over two years, we worked to preserve the spirit of these houses designed by Alain Amédéo, while adapting them to the lives of their new inhabitants.
The project explores how a remarkable architecture can evolve without losing its identity, balancing modernity, context, and craftsmanship. A masonry and timber pergola extends the original silhouette and creates a shaded rooftop space, while the interiors open up, continuing the fluid circulation of the initial design.
Materials remain simple — rough masonry, canal tiles, timber frames, pine furniture — forming a rustic language inspired by the mazets of Provence. 
Large openings and green metal structures contrast with this simplicity and frame the surrounding landscape.

The project concerns the rehabilitation of an old building in central Marseille, intended for seasonal rental. In a context of housing scarcity, the intervention seeks to avoid over-specialization by reinforcing domestic qualities and maintaining a plan capable of accommodating different forms of occupation.
The project builds on the existing structure. On the envelope, it improves the building through the creation of a courtyard-facing terrace on the top floor, the reconstruction of damaged balconies, and thermal upgrading.
Existing elements are preserved as much as possible to maintain the character of the building.

In the showroom, a large curtain creates a filter between the space and the street, enhancing the displayed pieces.

The sewing workshops in the basement.

The project involves fitting out the new premises of a textile company that needed to relocate all its activities quickly into a single building. The aim was to organise a variety of work spaces — offices, sewing workshops, open space, reception area, showroom — using solutions that could be implemented rapidly while giving the place a clear identity for welcoming clients. The approach places furniture at the core of the project. By reinterpreting several pieces from the open-source wooden furniture repertoire Autoprogettazione by Enzo Mari, we develop a series of simple, robust, and reproducible elements that form a common framework for the entire project. The studio also provided detailed artistic direction through the sourcing of reused pieces of furniture.

Kitchen, bathroom, and Bedrooms occupy two-thirds of the space.

While in the remaining third, a double-height living area amplifies light and the connection to the garden.

The project explores the transformation of an ordinary architecture, introducing a sense of spatial generosity within a constrained and standardized envelope. The original pavilion was modest in scale and simply built, with an unclear layout. Its straightforward proportions and direct relationship to the garden nevertheless offered a solid basis to work from. The project extends the pavilion and rethinks its organization while preserving this underlying quality. The intervention is articulated through two complementary gestures. Inside, a complete reworking of the interior clarifies the structure and opens up a double-height volume. An independent timber structure allows for the insertion of a habitable upper level within what was originally a single-storey space, without impacting the existing foundations. Outside, the volume is extended by 2.5 meters toward the garden; a strip of glass blocks marks the transition between the existing building and the extension, bringing diffuse light into the heart of the plan.

In the dining room, the lines follow the roundness of the bookcase and create a niche for a tableware cabinet.

All the more intimate functions (sleeping, washing, dressing) are located behind the sliding bookcase.

The project consists in the complete renovation of an apartment that featured an unusual partition with a large circular opening. We wanted to highlight this sculptural element by creating a sliding bookcase that acts both as a separation between the living area and the night space, and as storage for the client’s extensive book collection.

The project consists in revitalising a pastry shop that has been part of the Marseille neighbourhood for more than ten years. All the furniture and textiles were designed and custom-made for the space in collaboration with local artisans. Each element is modular: shelves can be moved, curtains fold and shift, and wall hooks can be rearranged as needed. They hold brooms, aprons and everyday tools, highlighting the connection between beauty and utility, and the gestures that shape the life of the shop. On the façade, embroidered curtains protect the pastries from the sun and create a warm, inviting presence from the street.

The commission was to create a new space for a coffee chain. The project is structured around durability, reversibility, and a precise use of materials. French stained oak replaces the brand’s afrormosia, while non-reusable elements are reduced to a minimum. The tasting area expands, contracts, or disappears according to use.

Bookshelves and curtains hide a walk in closet.

The project involves fitting out a twenty-square-metre through-space as a small studio, designed to complement the rooms of the family apartment located on the level below.
In the bathroom, a partially glazed sliding wall encloses the space while still allowing light to pass through, giving the studio a calm and open atmosphere despite its compact size.

The project consisted in redesigning the layout of an apartment in a former coaching inn dating from the 18th century, built around a paved courtyard. The main initiative was to swap the bathroom and the kitchen. The kitchen then became larger and opened onto the sitting room, while the bathroom became a naturally lit and ventilated space.
