What Agence 22° - Paysagistes & Urbanistes does

Agence 22° (legal name: Agence 22 Degrés, also styled Vingt-Deux Degrés) is a French landscape architecture and urban planning firm founded in 2015 in Paris by landscape architects and urbanists Étienne Fouque and Pierre-Thomas Cochaud Doutreuwe. The firm operates as a multi-disciplinary studio integrating landscape architects, urbanists, and architects under a 'collectif' design process, with a methodological spine built on three pillars: Amplifier (working with the existing identity of places), S'adapter (climate adaptation and risk integration), and Le Vivant (biodiversity and living systems). Service lines span territorial strategies, urban renewal, public spaces, parks and gardens, eco-villages and eco-districts, landscape and ecological charters, schoolyard design, and building perimeter landscaping.

The firm is organized around a Paris headquarters (Passage Saint-Sébastien, 75011), an administrative and tendering office in Vannes (Brittany), and a secondary office in La Rochelle. Its go-to-market is overwhelmingly sales-led and competition-driven: it pursues public procurement (appels d'offres) and design competitions (concours) issued by French municipalities, intercommunalities, departments, and public institutions, supplemented by direct commissions from private developers and corporations. Customer segments are dominated by public administration (cities, SPLs, public schools, healthcare and sports facilities), with a secondary vertical in private real estate (ICADE, Groupe Legendre) and corporate headquarters (EXAIL). Project delivery is consistently multi-firm, with recurring alliances to Brenac & Gonzalez, HEMAA, CUBE², Barozzi Veiga, Studio 02, and engineering partner Ingé-Infra.

Geographically the firm is anchored in metropolitan France (Île-de-France, Normandy, Brittany, Pays de la Loire, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, Hauts-de-France, Grand Est, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Occitanie) and has accumulated international competition wins in China (Shanghai Pudong 2016, Wuhan Fuh 2018), South Korea (Yeongcheon 2016), Switzerland (Geneva), and Chile (Farellones). Over its ten-year history it has built a reference list of 100+ projects spanning site scales from intimate courtyards to a 170,000 m² urban park, with project budgets (whole-project values, not the firm's fees) ranging from low six figures to €70M. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; the firm is a privately held partnership with no external investment, parent company, or subsidiaries.

Revenue model

1. Public Procurement Contracts: Majority of revenue comes from public contracts awarded through competitive tenders (appels d'offres) and design competitions (concours) by municipalities, departments, intercommunalities, and public institutions. These are typically multi-year contracts for master planning, landscape design, and public space implementation.
2. Private Developer Commissions: Revenue also generated from direct commissions by private developers, property owners, and corporations for landscape design of commercial buildings, residential complexes, and corporate headquarters (e.g., ICADE, Groupe Legendre, private real estate developers).
