M+R interior architecture

Profile
M+R interior architecture is an international operating office founded in 2000 by Hans Maréchal. Our fields of activity often involve complex assignments such as converting and designing offices, airports, libraries, restaurants, hotels, theatres and shops. Among our design skills and core activities for building and interior architecture we are also involved with revitalizing existing buildings and monuments in particular. The architects from M+R determine the form and content of each design assignment on the basis of the programme of requirements.

Creativity, functionality, sustainability and ergonomics are translated in a well thought-out manner into a unique final product with an identity of its own. The starting-point is usually a conceptual approach to the design task, for which a total plan is developed, with a sharp eye for details. The power of a strong design is vision, innovation and the quality of realization.

We attach a lot of value to the integration of technology and its possibilities. Light architecture is also a core business within the firm, seeing as light in particular makes an important contribution to the quality of life 

Philosophy
Green offices
Sustainable buildings, from cradle to cradle concepts, which are important in response to the growing demand for flexible working environments. The attention to these themes is constantly increasing and the frameworks for projects are defined in terms of durability.

Basis for a sustainable building is designing a good living and working environment with a low energy consumption so we can decrease the use of limited resources. In addition to the positive effect on nature, the environment and surroundings are especially the installation concept and the choice of material that affects the indoor environment in offices. Research indicates that improving the indoor environment an increase in labour productivity by 5-10%.

M+R interior architecture aims for a socially responsible qualitative and durable design, we have extensive expertise in the field of the sustainability of buildings (Breeam; C2C; the Natural Step) and we are constantly looking for new solutions and ideas.
