Bureau Lacroix

What Bureau Lacroix does

Bureau Lacroix is a Paris-based interior architecture and product design agency founded in 2021 by Belgian-French designer Sophie Lacroix, operating with a small team of 1-10 employees. The firm delivers two integrated offerings: bespoke interior architecture services, including concept development, 2D/3D modeling, plan books, and craftsman coordination for high-end hospitality, residential, and retail projects, and a signature Iris Collection of limited-edition, numbered, designer-signed furniture sold via its e-commerce storefront and direct commissions. Technical differentiation rests on a signature stainless steel lace base developed in collaboration with French metalworking workshop Crealumin, alabaster sourced from the Spanish mountains of Zaragoza, and aged solid wood (150-year-old elm from Normandy, 100-year-old French oak), with pieces crafted alongside master woodworker Robin Poupard and other named artisans.

The business model is dual-track: project-based professional services priced via custom estimates with a 25% deposit requirement (per the published Terms & Conditions), and unit-priced product sales ranging from €1,750 for a table lamp to €6,100 for a low table, with a transparent cost breakdown published as 28% design, 40% materials, 20% craftsmanship, 7% transport, 3% packaging, and 2% payment fees. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise field sales for large commissions alongside an owned e-commerce channel and earned media in design publications such as AD, Elle Décoration, IDEAT, and Marie Claire Maison. The customer base includes marquee hospitality names (Four Seasons George V, Manko Group, Lapérouse, Hollywood Savoy, Rugby Club de Toulon) and luxury residential clients, with project delivery extending from Paris to the French Riviera, Athens, Florence, and Marrakech. The firm is privately held as a French SAS, with no disclosed revenue, funding amount, or institutional investors beyond a 2021 founding capital raise.
