After spending the early part of her career in education—where she enjoyed sparking her students’ curiosity and overseeing educational projects focused on culture for all—Saïda decided to follow her creative instincts and returned to school to study interior design and art history. It was a revelation: she was meant for a more artistic, more creative life—but one that still kept her in close contact with others.

She first tried her hand at small-scale publishing, creating a city guide to Pantin and Le Pré-Saint-Gervais with her friend Stéphanie Antoine, a chef and author of children’s cookbooks. Then she moved into real estate, naturally, driven by a desire to support her clients in this sector she knows so well, as well as with their renovation plans.

Born in Paris, where she grew up, and influenced by her Moroccan heritage, Saïda has a natural sensitivity to scents, textures, colors, and craftsmanship. She is particularly drawn to the art of ceramics and the curvilinear work of Valentine Rosi Mistou and Marion Graux, in which sensuality, the balance of colors, and organic forms fascinate her.

Curious by nature, she enjoys discovering new places with a strong architectural identity, observing even the smallest details, and drawing inspiration from them—much like the architect Fernand Pouillon, who noted that “in architecture, there are no details.”

And so she walked through the doors of the ARCHIK agency—which she discovered in Marseille—to join the adventure and bring to life all the facets of her passions: architecture, real estate, design, craftsmanship, and publishing. And for your enjoyment, thanks to her meticulous guidance !

Maud HOUVER

Negotiator

maud.houver@archik.fr

A native of Strasbourg, Maud grew up with a deep appreciation for vibrant cities. When she arrived in Paris fifteen years ago, she was immediately captivated by its energy: the streets undergoing renewal, the spots that become landmarks, and the encounters that gradually weave together neighborhood life.

A graduate of ESEC with a degree in audiovisual production, Maud spent ten years as a production manager in film and then in advertising. During that time, she developed a keen eye for aesthetics: the precision of a shot, the poetry of lighting, and the coherence of a set. Over the years, she discovered a particular passion for scouting filming locations: finding just the right place, imbued with an atmosphere capable of bringing a story to life.

The line between interior design and home life is a fine one. For her, feeling at home takes on its full meaning. Buying her first apartment revealed her attraction to unique spaces. Very quickly, her friends and family—and then their friends and family—began seeking her design advice. Drawn to the warm modernism of the ’60s and the pop-art lines of the ’70s, she carefully hunts for vintage pieces, which she happily pairs with contemporary designs: curves by Axel Chay, and the colorful silhouettes of India Mahdavi. In this way, she creates interiors where different eras interact and complement one another.

It was only natural, then, that she joined ARCHIK, where everything that inspires her comes together: real estate as a field of exploration, architecture as a language, design as emotion, and above all, the connections that give meaning to spaces.

ÉPICÈNE

Architecte d'intérieur

architectes@archik.fr

After a career in publishing, Isabelle Heilmann desire to blossom through creation led her to train in space design at the École Boulle. She then created her agency, Épicène, in 2018, for the double grammatical sense of the term, and creates public and residential projects with a timeless aesthetic. She develops interior architecture sensitive to the history of places, with soft and fluid geometry, in a spirit of lightness that aims to achieve simplicity, elegance, harmony. An open-mindedness due to her multicultural heritage, from Italy to China through India, where Beauty has no borders and is plural.

Its remarkable architecture? The Querini Stampalia Foundation in Venice, Louis Kahn’s Exeter Library and Peter Zumthor’s Thermes de Vals : strong creations that have been able to magnify the limitations of the site, and propose a “total” work that is attentive to volumes, uses, choice of materials and even furniture details.

Isabelle finds her inspiration in art, design and travel. She admires the sobriety of Japanese architecture : “everything is beautiful and well thought out, an aesthetic research that integrates the most everyday object. In terms of materials, she prefers raw wood, handmade ceramics, concrete and stainless steel, with which she likes to create compositional sets and unusual associations.

With ARCHIK, she has found an ecosystem composed of aesthetes from different backgrounds united around a common vision of the art of living, to which she fully endorses.

Marion GRIMAUD

Negotiator

marion.grimaud@archik.fr

Marion is a true Parisian, a native of the 19th arrondissement, where she completed her entire architecture degree at the École de La Villette. After six years of training, she earned her Habilitation à la Maîtrise d’Œuvre en Nom Propre (HMONP), marking the start of her career. She worked for several years as a freelancer at various firms before founding her own architecture studio, COMASTUDIO Paris, in 2017.

She is particularly drawn to spatial planning and the transformation of existing spaces. Issues related to housing and “living” are at the heart of her thinking: how a place supports everyday activities, and how it reveals itself through the people who inhabit it. Rethinking circulation, redistributing spaces, and unlocking a space’s potential : Marion strives to transform spaces to make them more balanced, more fluid, and more welcoming. Drawn to the curved lines and ornamental details of Art Nouveau, as well as to the expressive power of certain Brutalist buildings, her influences give rise to a style that is both structured and embodied.

Throughout her career, one thing has become clear: beyond design, it is the human connection that drives her. Curious about the ways people live, she enjoys discovering new interiors, observing how each person makes a space their own, transforms it, and tells its story. Understanding how spaces are used, people’s desires, and their visions for the future. Building connections, providing support, and offering advice: these are all aspects that naturally extend her perspective as an architect.

Outside of architecture, Marion volunteers to support new mothers. She enjoys running—with a strong taste for a challenge—loves to travel and go on road trips, and has a well-known passion for good food. Always on the lookout for new places to explore, she remains deeply attached to neighborhood life in the 19th arrondissement.

From architecture to client support, the transition came about quite naturally. ARCHIK stands out as the obvious choice, at the intersection of its two core focuses: designing spaces and supporting the people who inhabit them.

Jessica PAYET

Interior Designer

architectes@archik.fr

A Parisian with a sunny personality, Jessica began her career in an advertising agency and worked for ten years as a group leader. Passionate about decoration, she undertook a training in interior design and created Jessica Payet Interior Designer in March 2021.

Her work is influenced by the Haussmannian style, which she likes to break away from while retaining its charm. “All styles can work harmoniously if you have the keys and tips to do so. Jessica likes to make spaces timeless and unique by adapting to the personality and desires of its inhabitants. Her specialty? The creation of 3D perspectives allowing her to appropriate the places she invests. In love with nature, she favors natural materials such as wood, stone, rattan and plants such as Moonflower or Jasmine to purify the air in her projects.

Sensitive to the works of Sofia Lind for their romanticism and the curiosity they arouse, art is an integral part of her work: photographs, art reproductions, framed or panoramic to captivate the eyes. The opportunity for her clients to tell their stories in a unique way.

Seduced by the “art of living” according to ARCHIK, Jessica adheres to our 360° vision of real estate and becomes one of our Parisian partners. She accompanies you in your renovation projects, combining both beauty and well-being.

Louis EISENLHOR

Architect HMONP

architectes@archik.fr

Louis’ vocation for architecture was born very early, cradled in a Marseilles family where sensitivity to beauty is a story of transmission. After graduating in 2012 from the National School of Architecture in Marseille, Louis began his career in Paris with François Brugel Architectes Associés, an agency that deals with housing, rehabilitation and extensions. He thus learned to work in and with the existing, playing with it and with pure creation.

His approach to architecture is identity and his approach sincere, which is felt in the aesthetics of his work.  His reflection on the projects goes far beyond the respect of a specification: he immerses himself in the place, “captures its sensitivity because it is that which will make the project, in addition to the desires and needs of his clients. Here, we create with the concern of revealing the qualities of a place, of an architecture, of a materiality, by using two to three natural materials per project, not more.

Louis’ vocation is to produce an architecture that values themes such as: framing, natural light, path and rhythm. He spontaneously cites Sverre Fehn’s Nordic Pavilion, designed in 1962 for the Venice Biennale of Architecture, as the ultimate reference.

Louis shares with ARCHIK more than a geographical identity, of course. The particular attention paid to materials and their quality, but also this thoughtful approach to living, this common vision of how to live and feel good at home. Let us guide you!

COTE OUTDOOR

Landscape Designer DPLG

paysagistes@archik.fr

After completing her studies at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Paysage de Versailles-Marseille, Elodie Wehrlen became a DPLG landscape designer in 2013. This native of Alsace chose – after having worked for local authorities – to create her own structure, Côté Outdoor, and to dedicate herself to the development of gardens and terraces for individuals. “A desire to change scale. The exterior should be the centerpiece of the house. In Marseille, the potential is under-exploited and often relegated to the last part of the layout.

Her encounter with ARCHIK, whose architectural approach she appreciates, was made on social networks. An interview with Amandine led her to work on various projects. “Either before a sale to provide visual inspiration in 3D, sketches or for concrete realizations.

Her tastes lead her to prefer graphic gardens and terraces, with strong lines and the plants that go with them, such as birds of paradise or agaves.

Her favorite places in Marseille? The Docks building, for its conviviality and its contemporary identity, and a few cosy cafés like Coogee, on the Boulevard Baille in the 5th district.

Nathalie Rozencwajg

DPLG Architect

architectes@archik.fr

Immersed in a multicultural environment since her birth, between Luxembourg and Brussels, Nathalie flew to London in 1996 where she studied architecture at the Architectural Association. Her career path and experiences led her to work in renowned firms where she participated in large-scale projects around the world: the Onassis Foundation in Athens, the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Great Britain, and numerous projects in China. Wishing to fly on her own, she created several agencies in 2007 and founded NAME in 2018. Between London and Paris, the agency works on projects of various scales, from the individual to the collective, often winning awards. Among the emblematic projects, an Arctic resort in Lapland, a shopping mall in Bangkok and a new hotel for a desert climate.

Nathalie brings that European touch of elegance and attention to detail and aesthetics, which appeals to her international clients. She is a regular contributor to architecture & design magazines and participates in conferences for international audiences.

Her projects are inspired by the city and the urban lifestyle, but also by the history of a place, its materials, its patterns or the traces found there before renovating it. She cherishes light wood, white, linen, ceramics, and Luis Barragán’s architecture for its mastery of proportion, light and color.

With ARCHIK, she shares the same universe where Beauty has a primordial place, and where the history of a place shapes a renovation.
