french designer mathieu lehanneur has completed ‘JWT agency’ for the paris subsidiary of the international marketing communications brand.
designed in collaboration with ana moussinet, the space looks to reflect the contemporary working methodology of the company.

loosely broken into areas of brainstorming, meeting rooms and game spaces, the overall environment is arranged to optimize the capabilities of
the employees and promote creativity among workers. porous divisions between work, play and relaxation are further emphasized by
malleable furniture configurations that suite a range of group and individual activities. a mass of black tar acts as a coffee bar and additional
work space while marking the entrance from the lobby into the main office.

in the lobby, miniature landscapes of variously sized stools consume the space to provide informal seating. the geometric forms are counter balanced
by an series of hanging plants, developed with the artist group scenocosme, that play music when someone brushes against them. 
grass-like pathways navigate around walls, columns and groups of furniture, leading visitors and workers deeper into the agency.

private cavern-like volumes contrast the milky-white walls and floors of the internal shell, acting as soundproof meeting rooms.
the rocky masses – composed of pulped recycled paper from the office – are separated from their surroundings,
providing a sense of division to the otherwise continuous space.
