A project
The various stages of an architectural project
First date
French architect Alexandre Lafourcade gets to know the site. "The most important thing is to have a long conversation with the client to understand their wishes; then you need to immerse yourself in the place, thinking hard about every detail." From the outset, Alexandre Lafourcade has a clear vision of how to transform and enhance a mas, a farmhouse, a warehouse, a château, an hotel... self-taught, he has an intuitive grasp of architectural concepts.
Survey and analysis of the building
"A proper survey involves an in-depth understanding of the property and can help avoid hasty decisions and unnecessary expense."
Lafourcade Architecture carries out a rigorous analysis of the house and surroundings.
Preliminary project Design
There are preliminary discussions about the project with the client. Once they approve, Lafourcade Architecture takes care of the administrative procedures.
