An original, innovative and connected building

We wanted to make the building ultra-connected to align with Somfy’s innovation ambitions. A welcoming totem, a connected object counter, a photobooth, Somfy Connect products, a tactile wall, an RFID table, a Back Home interface, a futuristic cinema room… Our mission? To design all the workshops, their interfaces, their interactions, and the experience they offer to visitors today, relying on the solutions implemented in this large connected house, to use Somfy’s own words.

Multiple objectives and vocations

At the request of our client, we developed this concept around specific objectives. We had to keep in mind the following elements:

Tell the story of Somfy
Offer a unique experience to its visitors while showcasing the range of Somfy products
Have an experience center at the heart of the company
Demonstrate Somfy’s openness to innovation by maximizing the building’s digitalization.

Guiding the visitor from arrival to departure

A 100 % interactive user journey

What could be better than interaction to make the visit to this connected building even more fun? Thanks to the innovations put in place within this complex, visitors immerse themselves in a world filled with connected screens, tactile walls, and other technological feats.
