Triptyque is a Franco-Brazilian architecture and urban planning firm known for its naturalistic and rationalist approach. It is led by founding partners Guillaume Sibaud and Olivier Raffaëlli, graduates from the Paris La Seine School of Architecture and the Paris Institute of Urbanism.
Driven by the same interest in contemporary metropolises and the desire to confront other realities, they founded the Triptyque office in São Paulo in 2000 and Paris in 2008. In more than two decades of history, Triptyque has developed public and private architecture, urbanism and interior projects in Latin America and Europe in various fields such as residential, corporate, education, hospitality, health and research. The firm is also present at exhibitions and biennials. Models of some of its projects have been included in museum collections such as those of the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Triptyque has received numerous international awards and has been published by publishers in several countries.
The sensuality of its proposals, combined with an intrinsic naturalness, propels Triptyque into the international panorama of innovative architects. Winners of the New Albums of Young Architects (NAJA-2008), the quartet, eager for challenges, set up a second office in Paris. Triptyque currently has more than sixty employees.
As creative as it is rigorous, Triptyque participates in various projects in Brazil and France - housing, offices, and public spaces - both private and public. Adept at the work of land and urban issues, Triptyque also intervenes in housing policy redefinition and the urbanization of neighbourhoods. Supporters of the virtuous city, also accompany foundations with a social vocation to contribute to a better life.
Triptyque also attracts the world of luxury and creates hotels, resorts and places of contemporary expression, art galleries and exhibition spaces. The architecture studio has also been invited to curate various exhibitions; some of their designed pieces now belong to museums such as the Pompidou Center in Paris.
