3 questions to Christophe Antin, Regional Manager - Lyon Center-East

How strong is Kardham today?
Our stance, since the creation of Kardham, has been to integrate skills into our teams to respond to the issues encountered by our customers. The resulting plurality of professions and profiles (architects, engineers, designers, consultants, doctoral students, etc.) allows us to support our clients throughout their real estate journey. We intervene at all stages of the project, from reflection to its technical realization in
through development and sustainable or digital solutions to be implemented. Faced with a fragmented market that brings together players with very diverse technical skills and language, we are working to ensure the consistency of an entire project by
including all parameters whether technical or social.

What is the credo of the Lyon agency?
The goal of the Lyon agency is to cover all of central eastern France, our different businesses. Our team, of around fifteen employees, reflects this. Our missions also include a complete understanding of a site (creation of a head office
social, master plan of an industrial heritage, ...) than the treatment of a specific need (acoustic improvement of an office floor, design of a reception, ...). A transversality which allows us to offer expertise tailored to the singularity of each project. We interact with the project as a whole, whatever its size. An agility that we want to continue to cultivate because it complements our know-how.

What are the skills of Kardham?
We integrate five real estate businesses: Consulting, Architecture, Space Design, Engineering and Digital. Space Design and Architecture are our two historic skills. We also carry out consulting assignments (assistance with project management, assistance with change management, advice to investors or occupants) upstream and throughout our clients' projects. Technical studies and project management, energy and environmental performance, commissioning, our engineering expertise leaves a lot of room for innovation. Digital is our newest field of activity. We work as much on advice as on the implementation of innovative digital solutions by responding to current issues such as smart building or smart office. We do not prevent ourselves from adding other fields of intervention that will be dictated to us by the evolution of the perception of the users of the spaces for which we work.
