NP2F is an architectural office founded in 2009 by François Chas, Nicolas Guérin, Fabrice Long and Paul Maitre Devallon. Today, the firm employs around twenty people, spread between Paris and Marseille, and it leads projects of varying size and programming, both in France and elsewhere. Their approach is to be attentive to uses, while encouraging broader urban awareness and fostering relationships with climates.
They constantly question the notion of comfort by bringing about ambiguous relationships between interior and exterior. NP2F avoids set recipes for architecture, and the team operates collaboratively, both internally and externally. The office has come to acquire notable expertise in the realisation of complex facilities, including large-scale works. They also co-curated the exhibition Sports. Portrait d'une métropole (2014), held at the Pavillon de l'Arsenal, Paris, for which they obtained profound knowledge about the city's spaces for sport.
