On Cities is a Paris-based studio focusing on the relationship between architecture and the city.

O.C. STANDS FOR INTERDISCIPLINARITY.
Our core activity is to design and transform space, with no preconceptions regarding realms, types and scales.
This brings us to work on a wide diversity of projects and supports, from masterplans to interior design, from construction to research.

O.C. STANDS FOR ARCHITECTURE AS A TOOL IN THE PURSUIT OF THE COMMON GOOD.
Our mission is to design meaningful spaces with a positive impact on cities, people and on other living beings.

O.C. STANDS FOR FREE SPACE.
Space adaptability = space durability.
Freedom of space = freedom of action.
