The Talks
Description
Outdoor Living. Within a time of lockdown that makes us all long for fresh air and new heights, the rooftop, an exceptional, friendly meeting space, seems so alluring. Resting atop a train station, building, or department store, it offers a timeless experience that sends us into a world that is elaborated down to the smallest details.

Franklin Azzi
Architect & Founder - Franklin Azzi Design
Within his Parisian agency founded in 2006, Franklin Azzi uses a cross-category approach that is nourished by intersecting views and disciplines. By constantly bringing architecture, interior design, design and contemporary art into dialogue, with the support of the particular endowment fund, he practices a certain art of designing and building that is open to all scales and types of spaces. Franklin Azzi infuses his commitment as a designer/builder into every aspect of his designs, from large-scale to the smallest detail of manufacturing, whether it’s a public or private commission, in France or abroad. In doing this, he infuses heritage buildings with fresh energy, invents the living and working spaces of tomorrow (The Bureau, Be In for LVMH), rethinks urban planning with total respect for existing structures (Beaupassage for Emmerige), and develops removable and detachable structures (the pavilion on the rooftop of Galeries Lafayette). Such are the many spaces that are defining a new horizon of possibilities, with a contemporary, sustainable approach that serves its users.
