Identity

AREP is a permanent laboratory for research into the city on the move.
By combining a number of complementary disciplines, AREP seeks to make every project a focus of innovation for the contemporary town or city.

All these disciplines share in the design and realisation of the project. The resulting cross-fertilisation contributes to sharpening professional competencies and practice relative to:

• town planning and development,
• architecture,
• design and interior architecture,
• civil engineering.

Three scales of project correspond to these:

• the territory,
• the building,
• the fittings or the artefact.

Structured around areas of competency, AREP covers all the technical knowledge needed to oversee comprehensive projects. From developing extensive territories to designing everyday objects, the approach is the same and the values are shared, while the methods and investigation resources differ from one professional area to another.
