Proud of its historic headquarters and known for pursuing ambitious collaborations, David Layani, founder and president of Onepoint, once again entrusted Archimage with the extension of his Paris offices, following two previous projects completed together in Paris and Nantes.
The new site was originally a private mansion built in the late 19th century and later converted into an office building in the 1990s.
It has now been completely transformed, undergoing both an energy-efficient and an aesthetic and functional renovation that redefined its entire layout.
This major restructuring provided Archimage with an opportunity to rethink the interior spaces from the earliest stages and to align them with Onepoint’s vision for new ways of working.
Onepoint’s goal was to create a surprising, unconventional place that feels unlike any other.
Different codes of pop culture are interwoven here, blending various aesthetic and decorative influences — from imperfect wabi-sabi to minimalist japandi and retro-bohemian 70s style.
This mix unfolds in an unexpected sequence of diverse spaces and uses.
From the entrance to the garden, through the central courtyard, from the lobby to the upper terraces, work and meeting areas alternate with more informal spaces: creative zones, relaxation areas, booths and alcoves — offering Onepoint’s teams countless ways to work and connect.
The result is a place that is not quite an office, not quite ‘like home’, but rather a collaborative, community-driven hub — a unifying space, harmonious in its diversity and a true reflection of the Group’s culture.*
