Signes is a leading French urban design company.  Our team specialises in masterplanning, public transport integration, landscape architecture and urban design.

We bring together a multi-disciplinary team of architects, urban planners and environmental engineers, whilst drawing upon talent local to each project with specific skills in certain areas.

Our focus is urban regeneration with sustainable design.  We welcome the opportunity to work on all sizes of projects; from the very smallest to an entire territory.

Signes works with private and public authorities, helping them to deliver solutions with the highest environmental standards.  We combine international design with local and cultural values.  Our smart planning principles include industry-leading sustainability in buildings and infrastructure; pedestrian-friendly green public realms; and seamless links to public transportation.

At the heart of all our projects, we envision and implement masterplans that give priority to human-scale needs. Our projects include green spaces and streets, sustainable buildings and well-designed public transport systems that move people not just vehicles.

Large tranquil parks, coupled with rooftop gardens and waste management eco-systems have become Signes' design signature. We strongly believe that quality public spaces designed by and for the community are a key element of well-being that leads to a higher quality of life in our cities and local areas.

The transformation of our cities into liveable places requires imagination and the highest quality of urban design standards. It’s not just about minimising the environmental impact, but also meeting economic expectations and bringing about wider social benefits. Signes is all about creating sustainable and liveable places.  We go beyond the planning stage and love to get involved in the transformation of places, cities and regions.

Because of the diversity of its projects and clients, and by taking this sensitive approach, Signes is not bound by any specific academic style or preconceptions. Instead, our practice is free to create landscapes and cityscapes in perpetual evolution that is specific to their own history, region and culture.

L'étude et la conception de paysages relève du travail d'équipes pluridisciplinaires.
L'équipe du Groupe Signes réunit des paysagistes, architectes, urbanistes, ingénieurs, graphistes, artistes, qui se nourrissent de la collaboration régulière de sociologues, d'historiens, de philosophes,  de designers, de scénographes dont les apports et les idées, développés avec la liberté nécessaire, enrichissent chaque projet dans une démarche transversale.

Les sujets sur lesquels cette équipe travaille vont de l'échelle du jardin à celle de l'urbanisme et du grand paysage :

Parcs et jardins publics

Restauration de patrimoines historiques,

Espaces de loisirs,

Espaces publics urbains,

Urbanisme,

Aménagement des abords de sièges sociaux et de bâtiments administratifs,

Insertion d'infrastructures et de grands équipements.

Nos compétences complémentaires nous permettent d’avoir une approche globale, aussi bien théorique qu’opérationnelle.

Signes est équipée des outils informatiques les plus récents, y compris en 3D, nécessaires aujourd'hui à la production des dessins techniques pour les plans d'exécution et à la réalisation de documents de communication.
