Located in a former mail sorting facility converted into a showcase for the La French Tech startup movement, the site was designed by STUDIOS to include inviting, flexible spaces for working, dining and meeting other innovators.

The team chose to accentuate the site’s powerful architectural heritage through the use of authentic, raw materials like concrete, metal and wood.

True to the postal industry’s pioneering spirit, STUDIOS selected upcycled materials and furnishings as part of a profoundly environmentally responsible approach.
