About Change this
AWP is an award winning interdisciplinary office for territorial reconfiguration and design. It is based in Paris and develops projects internationally working on a wide variety of programmes: architecture, landscape design, strategic planning, urbanism.
These projects only differ in terms of context and scale but they all share the same values and visions: hospitality, beauty, an innovative confrontation between symbol and uses and a renewed relationship between architecture and landscape.
Their portfolio of clients includes several European cities, metropolitan and regneneration authorities, cultural institutions and developers. Among their works: the French pavilion for the Architecture Biennale in São Paulo (Brazil, 2007), the Lantern pavilion in Sandnes (Norway, 2008), the sculpture park for the LAM, Museum of Modern, Contemporary and Outsider Art (France, 2010), the enlargement of a water purification plant (Evry, France, 2003-2012) and a 230ha strategic planning project for the Praille Acacias Vernets sector (Geneva, Switzerland, 2009-ongoing, with HHF).
The three partners have exhibited their work and lectured at many architectural venues in Paris, London, Milan, Rome, Barcelona, Beijing, Toronto, Belgrade, Tianjin, Winnipeg, Geneva, Copenhagen, Oslo, Trondheim, Tirana, Lausanne, New York and many other places.
