Brief description
OLGGA architects is a multidisciplinary agency federated around 3 different personalities with different yet complimentary backgrounds and studies.
OLGGA embodies an evolving and dynamic collective. Alice Vaillant and Guillaume Grenu, co-founders, are representing the parisian office since february 2006, founding date of the agency. Nicolas Le Meur completes the team since 2008, with an office in Lille. Gathered around the same pleasure to create, their architectural approach is experimental and optimistic.
Highly concerned with the impact of architecture and urbanism in our contemporary societies, every project is conceived around a central, strong idea that serves each location. To conceive systematically around the notions of topography and boundaries is for them a leitmotiv. The spaces and forms are often bold, almost radical, but always designed with sensibility and simplicity in mind.
