Meanwhile, Jerome de Alzua regularly gives lectures and participates in discussion groups on the contemporary city. He also teaches architectural project at the LOCI University in Tournai, Belgium.
The philosophy
The architecture agency is a LLC structured around two associated architects: Jerome de Alzua and Vanessa Barrois. They are surrounded by a team including a branch manager, an administrative and financial manager, a development manager, a graphic designer, an economist and 13 urban architects graduated from different European schools. The agency includes an urban planning and a site management center integrating project managers having a proper experience of complex and large issues. Each project is followed from the design to the completion by an architect: the project manager. For study missions and contests, the agency also appeal to experienced external speakers such as art workers, graphic designers, landscape architects, designers, urban planners...
The diversity of projects and a committed and structured method of production demonstrate de Alzua+ ability to adapt to each situation and to the issues of each project. The agency works for public and private clients with the same commitment to quality and the same adequacy of proposals in order to answer the complex issues of the contemporary world.
de Alzua+ see the work of architecture as a particularly exciting practice by the many handled societal issues, and by the major role that you have in the building of a city, either as an urban planner or an architect.
