Atelier Delphine Carrère

What Atelier Delphine Carrère does

Atelier Delphine Carrère is a privately held architecture and interior design studio headquartered in Biarritz, France, founded and led by principal Delphine Carrère. The studio delivers full-service design — from conception through completion — across private residential projects (villas, apartments, holiday homes), hospitality engagements (boutique hotels such as Hôtel des Dunes, Hôtel de la Plage, and Le Petit Hôtel), restaurants and brasseries (JTC Biarritz, JTC Hossegor, Brasserie BASA), and selected healthcare facilities (Anthèse cosmetic clinic in Bordeaux). Its core aesthetic specialization is Neo-Basque architectural style and the renovation of 1970s-era properties, with the practice geographically concentrated in the French Basque Country and selectively extended to Bordeaux.

The business operates a single revenue stream of project-based professional services fees, billed under multi-year contract cadence with no publicly disclosed standardized pricing; scope and complexity determine fees. The go-to-market motion is sales-led direct client engagement, supplemented by earned media in high-tier French design publications (AD Magazine, Elle Décoration, Vogue France, Marie Claire, Côte Maison, Harpers Bazaar) and an active Instagram presence (@adc_atelierdelphinecarrere). The studio maintains two physical locations in Biarritz — the 55 rue d'Espagne headquarters and the Entre:Temps showroom at 1 Rue Harispre — the latter functioning as a curated ecosystem hub for independent designers, global brands, artisans, and collaborative design projects.

A new product vector is in development: a dedicated furniture collection (Mobilier) is being built out and showcased on the studio's website with pieces marked as upcoming, signaling intended vertical extension into product revenue alongside the core services practice. The company is founder-owned with no venture capital backing, no parent company, and no documented institutional investment rounds, and headcount sits in the 11–50 range.
