Atelier Roch Marquès

Atelier Roch Marquès is a French architecture practice. Founded by Roch Marques, a DPLG architect, in Castelnau-le-Lez, in the Hérault, the practice — also known as ARM, Atelier d'Architecture et d'Urbanisme Roch Marques — now brings together three architects: Roch Marques, Noah Lavenant, a state-qualified architect, and Luca De Simone, an architect trained at the Naples School. The agency is a member of the Envirobat Occitanie network, dedicated to sustainable construction in the region. The atelier's core business is the architectural design of urban-planning projects, multi-family and single-family housing, as well as public-access buildings, mainly in the Montpellier metropolitan area and its surroundings. Since its creation, the agency has led several housing operations in the Hérault: Le 1985 and the Dental Prosthetics Center in Castelnau-le-Lez, Le Prisme in Montpellier, Blue One in Lattes (housing and offices), as well as several residential programs in Mèze, including Ciel & Mer, Les Perles Blanches, the Ostréale Residence and the La Girandière Residence. The agency champions architecture rooted in the territory and local culture, driven by a poetic dimension of the living environment. A member of the Envirobat Occitanie network, Atelier Roch Marquès frames its projects within an approach attentive to the environmental challenges of construction in Occitanie.
