Vision

Florent Chagny is an architect. He founded his firm in 2018 after eight years of experience in Switzerland and Paris. Project after project, he strives to offer architectural responses that elevate the existing through a radical retelling. Neither the frugality rightfully demanded by our times, nor the hyper-technologization brought on by the proliferation of regulations, should paralyze our pursuit of beauty. Form, materiality, and execution feed one another in an ultimate and political quest for aesthetics and functionality.
