Apartments: time follows depth.

Our three completed apartments range from 130 to 240 m², for 6 to 10 months of works — 7.7 months on average. Size does not explain everything: Le Vénitien (240 m²) took 7 months, Le Trocadéro (227 m²) took 10, because offices were being turned into a home, with sixteen trades. What lengthens a project is what you touch: structure, services, a new layout.

This matches our general benchmark: 4 to 8 months of works for a complete renovation, 6 to 12 months from first meeting to handover. Details in our article on renovation timelines.

Offices: four months, three times.

Our last three office projects — 210, 270 and 380 m² — were all delivered in four months, with 11 to 15 trades. An office floor suits a tight schedule: fewer structural repairs than an old apartment, and a move-in date that cannot slip. Our office renovation page explains the method.

Stores: the calendar is revenue.

In retail, duration depends on the type of work far more than on size. Livy (Étam group): 300 m² refreshed in one month. Stellar: 40 m² renovated in the same time. Newcop: 110 m² designed and delivered in three months, from signed lease to opening. See our store renovation page.

What the figures teach.

And the budget?

We do not publish our clients' budgets. Our observed ranges in Paris: €1,000 to €1,200/m² for a refresh, €1,800 to €2,200/m² for a carefully executed complete renovation (€2,000/m² on average), €2,400 to €2,800/m² for the high end, over €3,000/m² for exceptional projects — excluding custom millwork (+€500 to €700/m²) and design. Details, with a 100 m² example, in our article on the cost of a Haussmann renovation.

Method: surfaces, timelines and teams as shown on our project pages. This page is updated each time a new project is completed.
