ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS
Wood and neutral colors were at the heart of the choices for the materiality in order to propose a sustainable environment in harmony with the surrounding nature .
to emphasize the link with nature by implementing natural connector elements within their new work environment .
ISSASTUDIO , formerly known as ISSADESIGN , an agency specializing in biophilic design , was commissioned to design the interior of the administrative area . Architectural and site management services were provided by Syscomax . The building ’ s visual signature , suggested by Syscomax , is a beautiful ensemble of defined geometric lines blending country and Scandinavian allure , while echoing the company ’ s logo .
The designers ’ brief was to design a sustainable , welcoming , and unifying layout and aesthetic concept , without taking on the rural aesthetic codes associated with La Maison Lavande . In addition , nature has always been of great importance and inspiration to the Maison Lavande family . For the design team , it was important to include nature ’ s shapes and colors within the project . With this approach , the design challenge was to create an enchanting environment , highlighting the site ’ s architecture , singular identity , and natural surroundings on a human scale .
