Taillandier Architectes Associés - TAA

42 Rue de Cugnaux, 31300 Toulouse, France 8 Rue des Tanneries, 75013 Paris, France

Founded in 1993 by Pierre-Louis Taillandier, Taillandier Architectes Associés - TAA - is an architecture and urbanism agency based in Toulouse, France. TAA is an open-minded organisation, working side by side with private and public partners.
The people at TAA give their best to develop architectural solutions aimed to enhance the general experience: regardless of the nature of the project, the answer has to improve the quality of life of the end user and the direct environment. To reach this goal, the approach needs to be well designed and well built. Every step must be taken very carefully within a structured and professional organisation.
Much more than a mere architectural momentum, every project designed by TAA solves a series of equations blending program, user and environmental specifics. To achieve a truly obvious architectural and urban solution, Pierre-Louis Taillandier set up a rational and efficient methodology splitting the project into five dimensions: contextual, intellectual, technical, financial and sensitive.
TAA & affiliates gather about a hundred co-workers, deployed between Toulouse, Bordeaux, Montpellier and Paris.
