Since 2017, KEEZE has been transforming professional events thanks to its collection of exclusive locations and its high-end tailor-made services. The brand, founded by Shaun Nelson and Emilie Roblot, is continuing its development with the opening of a new exceptional 260m2 space, in the heart of the 2nd arrondissement of Paris.
Located on the 4th floor of a beautiful building with large windows, this new space, entirely glazed and bathed in natural light throughout the day, offers a nice view of Bachaumont Street, an emblematic Parisian street.
“We were immediately seduced by the unique identity of this place. Its large glass roof, its open volumes and its natural light evoke the great New York lofts, while offering a breathtaking view of the Haussmann roofs. This is exactly what we are looking for at KEEZE: a central, vibrant, iconic location in Paris, combined with a tailor-made layout.” says Shaun Nelson. “Thanks to the remarkable work of Emilie Roblot, Director of Facilities and co-founder of KEEZE, we were able to reveal the full potential of space, by creating a bright, inspiring, and flexible atmosphere. KEEZE Bachaumont perfectly embodies our ambition: to offer workplaces and events that are as beautiful as they are functional, capable of adapting to a wide variety of needs.”
He goes on to say: “The opening of KEEZE Bachaumont marks a new significant step in our development: it is our 18th space, less than a year after the launch of KEEZE Liège. It fully embodies our strategy: to offer unique places, in the heart of Paris, capable of responding to a wide variety of professional formats — from confidential workshops to corporate cocktails, through brand residencies or collection presentations. With Bachaumont, we are strengthening our ambition to create a new generation of event spaces dedicated to businesses: iconic, modular and deeply rooted in Parisian life.”
INSPIRING ATMOSPHERES FOR MEMORABLE EVENTS
The atmosphere of a place profoundly influences the way we work and our perception of a moment. This is why Keeze places are not only functional frameworks, they are designed as real levers for more effective professional meetings, promoting creativity and authentic connections, keys to the success of events.
Emilie Roblot, Development Director and co-founder of KEEZE tells: “The starting point for our layout always comes from the place itself. In Bachaumont, we were immediately drawn to the unique atmosphere of the neighborhood, this almost pedestrian street and the life it exudes. We wanted to strengthen this connection with the outside thanks to the very large existing windows, by creating a real dialogue between the interior space and the street. The benches that we have imagined all along, like a bow window, naturally invite you to come and sit there, to observe the city.
We also paid particular attention to the circulation of our team on site, with the desire to be inspired by the high-end hotel industry: to be present without ever imposing ourselves.
The overall challenge was to preserve the generosity of the volumes while avoiding the sometimes intimidating effect of a large loft. To achieve this, we have set up a full-height interior canopy made of fluted glass, which allows the space to be structured without partitioning it, while maintaining the flow of light. Thanks to precise spatial cuts, ceiling effects and architecture on a human scale, we have designed differentiated, warm and adaptable areas, in which each user can find their place.”
Designed as a real place to live, participants will arrive directly into the large meeting space. Entirely modular, this large room adapts to the needs of each client. It can be offered empty or converted into a meeting room, with all the necessary furniture and equipment: comfortable chairs, tables configured according to uses, HD screen, sound system and microphones. A lounge area, ideal for workshops or informal exchanges, completes the space.
They will then discover a beautiful dining area, the signature of the KEEZE concept, where customers are invited to serve themselves a coffee, to share a friendly moment as a team, or to chat over a cocktail.
Finally, at the back of the space is a colorful and confidential meeting room that can accommodate up to four people.
CREATORS OF EXCELLENT EVENT VENUES
To bring these inspiring atmospheres to life, the design team carefully orchestrates every detail to offer a unique character to the addresses in the collection.
Emilie Roblot adds: “At KEEZE, we are committed to giving meaning to each layout choice, by integrating second-hand elements and by valuing the work of small emerging designers. For this project, we favored collaborations with French or European designers, as well as with family businesses, carriers of know-how and sustainable values.
This is reflected in particular in the choice of furniture: two thirds of the chairs selected are second-hand, some of which were entirely reupholstered by a craftsman in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. The rest came from a collaboration with La Chaise Française, which customized the Margot Keller edition for the comfort of KEEZE customers. ”
On the design side, there are also iconic pieces that each have a privileged place in space: vintage Maison Jeudi fireplaces, Junit wooden pendants by Shneid Studio, Straw Zigzag lamp designed by French designer Julie Lansom, French designer Julie Lansom, Axel Chay pink metallic stool, Axel Chay pink metallic stool, Axel Chay, Moustache stool, a committed French design publishing house based in Paris.
Pop and colorful elements also decorate the space with a set of Mues design wallpaper friezes, Color Therapis rugs and cushions, decorative cushions from the Portuguese brand Opala, or even Swedish Ninja wall lamps, a fun and colorful Swedish creation studio.
