Originally a residential building, the site presented both challenges and opportunities. Our mission was to preserve the character of the neighbourhood while transforming the space into a vibrant and modern work environment.

The result is an office that respectfully nods to its past while fully embracing the needs of a forward-thinking, modern workforce.

To create a space that is both welcoming and professional, we curated a balanced material palette. Polished concrete flooring interplays with warm wood surfaces, combining industrial sensibilities with natural comfort. Enclosed rooms are carpeted to improve both acoustics and comfort, while custom acoustic wall panels enhance focus and reduce noise.

Veeva’s strong commitment to social values is reflected in the spatial organization of the office:

Fourth Floor: Designed for client interaction, this level features elegantly appointed boardrooms and meeting spaces, along with comfortable lounge areas. A sophisticated bar area serves as a flexible zone for both professional meetings and informal gatherings, offering a warm welcome to visitors and clients.

Fifth Floor: Dedicated to employees, this level maintains a balanced 50/50 mix of open-plan workstations and enclosed offices. Strategically placed meeting rooms support focus and collaboration, while a coffee bar and lounge area provide space for relaxation. The inclusion of a mother’s room, complete with accessible shower facilities, demonstrates Veeva’s ongoing commitment to inclusivity and employee well-being.

Sixth Floor: The crown jewel of the office is a top-floor retreat designed for relaxation, collaboration, and social interaction. It includes a large cafeteria, a fully equipped kitchen, and breakout zones. A rooftop terrace offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Paris skyline, including the Eiffel Tower creating a truly inspirational setting for both work and leisure.

Through meticulous planning and a deep understanding of Veeva Systems’ evolving needs, the Paris office exemplifies a seamless integration of brand identity, architectural legacy, and modern workplace design.
