Atelier Gigogne sprl

Description
The origin of the name of "Atelier GIGOGNE" lies in the nesting of the dimensions of architectural scope, from the details of objects to the territory, passing through the building and the urban.
"Atelier GIGOGNE" is a place of creation and realization of architectures open on the multiplicity of our world, facing every scale.
The architects of "Atelier GIGOGNE", and the majority of their partners share their practice between realization of projects, architectural teaching, in various research structures and different places.
The will to work in small team, on a artisanal scale, is linked with the practice of various partnerships, primarily other architects, and allow expanding the scope of action and enrich an open reflection to the variety of encountered programs..
The attention paid to the context and history, accompanies the invention of spaces and architectural forms, in response to the contemporary issues and wants to act in the hope of a future egalitarian, educated and sustainable.
