In-house, Bodin & associés gathers the diverse competencies and skills required for carrying out this type of project, from architects, museographers, programme consultants and interior architects to the HQE (Hight Environmental Quality) specialists and graphic artists, from our affiliate Francs Bourgeoise d’Investissement (F.B.I.), all of whom collaborate on the same site to develop our projects.
Our multidisciplinary scope enables us to immediately deploy a design team to undertake a “frontal” treatment of the project’s different components: programmatic, architectural, museographic and technical.
Proximity fosters linear working enabling the various specialisations involved to ensure daily co-ordination, thereby ensuring delivery of common, immediate and coherent solutions to the various challenges.
The full project management team shares a continuous practice through numerous projects and museographic realisations, and is thus truly proactive and working in harmony to develop projects that meet the level of performance clients require.
Furthermore, our team being aware of the great challenges facing us today and tomorrow is engaged with determination in the HQE approach (High Environmental Quality) and has wholeheartedly integrated the concept of sustainable development.
Our team is multidisciplinary right down to its organisation chart and enjoys the loyalty and diversity of the extended teams we have successfully constituted over several decades. Creating value through our work begins with our recognition of our partners’ work. Dialogue, listening and sharing are not only the foundation of our way of working, but also what guides us in all the work we plan to undertake with the multidisciplinary team we bring to this project.
