Professional Office Design
and Workspaces
We completely rethink your spaces and support you in leading this positive change.
The design of workspaces can encourage interaction and stimulate creativity. Physical spaces have the power to communicate strong messages to employees and visitors about your company’s values, identity, and brand image.
LES BATISSEURS offers you a turnkey design solution from concept to the perfect completion of works.
A complete service
to successfully design your office.
After a needs assessment, our team imagines and creates an office design that aligns with your company’s operating modes, identity, and values, while respecting your budget and timeline.
01
Defining the Objectives and Challenges of Office Design
Firstly, it is essential to consider the project’s challenges and the company’s aspirations. A needs assessment must then be conducted with the teams to better understand their functional and technical needs, their uses, and their behaviors.
02
Real Estate Research and Study
Defining the design objectives will help guide real estate research by conducting a feasibility study on existing offices.
03
Space Planning
Space planning aims to translate the daily practices and uses of users while respecting the project’s objectives and dynamics. This practice will optimize your spaces and create highly operational plans, which will subsequently lead to time and financial gains.
To perfect the design of your spaces, our interior architects and space planners will integrate essential parameters, such as performance, functionality, ergonomics, and well-being at work.
04
Furniture and Decoration Selection
The decoration of your professional offices, in addition to being pleasant for occupants, must reflect the company’s identity and values. Office branding thus contributes to increasing the attractiveness of the employer brand and attracting new talent.
Furthermore, the decoration of tertiary spaces promotes well-being, but also the performance of talent. Now, professional offices must encourage creativity, innovation, and collaboration.
05
Design Works
Renovation work may be necessary, or even indispensable, to bring professional premises up to regulatory and technical standards.
Our team is responsible for contracting the various stakeholders and managing the entire construction site to ensure the project is executed as designed.
06
Change Management
Any office design and transformation project will disrupt the daily lives of your employees. That’s why it’s essential to involve them. Adopting a solid change management strategy from the project’s inception will undoubtedly help you gain your employees’ buy-in.
We support HR teams in this change management, working with a panel of employees elected as “Project Ambassadors.” They will be consulted to enrich and champion the project. Their involvement ensures better appropriation of the spaces and contributes to the success of your new professional offices.
The Challenges
of Office (Re)design
Productivity
A workday involves multiple actions: creation, concentration, confidentiality, and collective production. Our multifunctional office designs adapt to the needs of the agile employee by offering them much more than a workstation: a set of work environments adapted to the different moments of their workday.
Quality of Work Life
The well-being, health, and engagement of employees directly and positively impact company performance. Employees are more motivated, involved, and enthusiastic in offices designed and conceived for their comfort.
Employer Brand
Your office space is a true communication tool for your company because it generates interest from both employees and visitors and leaves a lasting impression of your brand image on clients, suppliers, future candidates, and even journalists.
FAQ – Office Design
Why Redesign Your Offices?
Office design plays a key role in a company’s performance. Well-designed spaces foster collaboration, productivity, and team well-being. A design project is also an opportunity to evolve your working methods, improve your brand image, and attract new talent.
When Should You Launch an Office Design Project?
Several situations can trigger a project: moving to new premises, team growth, transformation of working methods (remote work, flex office), or a desire to modernize spaces. Rethinking the design allows offices to adapt to the actual uses of employees.
How Long Does a Workspace Design Project Take?
The duration depends on the surface area, the level of transformation, and technical constraints. On average, a project proceeds in three phases: needs diagnosis, space design (plans, 3D, budget), then execution of works until final delivery.
What is the Cost of Office Design?
The budget varies depending on the surface area, the work to be done, and the furniture and materials chosen. A design project is always built from a predefined budget envelope to optimize choices and ensure cost control.
What are the Benefits of an Eco-responsible Office Design?
Sustainable design helps reduce environmental impact while improving quality of life at work. The use of responsible materials, durable or second-hand furniture, and energy optimization contribute to creating more virtuous and often more economical offices in the long term.
Should Employees Be Involved in the Project?
Yes. Involving teams in the reflection process helps to better understand their uses and to imagine truly adapted spaces. This approach also facilitates the appropriation of new offices and supports change within the company.
Do You Work with a Single Point of Contact During the Project?
Yes. An office design project can involve many stakeholders (architects, craftsmen, suppliers). Our Design & Build method allows you to have a single point of contact to optimize your office design, simplify project management, coordinate the design work, and guarantee adherence to budget and timeline.
Do You Only Operate in Paris?
Office design projects are primarily carried out in Paris and Île-de-France, but teams can also support companies in their design projects in other regions as needed.
