NP2F is an architecture practice created in 2009 by Nicolas Guérin, Paul Maitre Devallon, Fabrice Long and François Chas. Today, it gathers twenty people, divided between Nice and Paris, and works in various cities in France and abroad. NP2F works on both architectural and urban projects, and its areas of expertise include sports, housing, cultural and educational buildings, leisure and catering facilities, and public spaces.
