My name is Johan Després.
A graduate of the Grenoble School of Architecture and a specialist in raw earth (clay) architecture (DSA-CRATerre), I have been renovating old buildings since 2013.
After more than ten years of experience, observation and reflection in this field, I am driven by the desire to develop this idea of ‘Parementerre’. Born over time and fuelled by encounters, it aims to be innovative, open-ended and open to the relationship with the customers and designers who will be taking part in the adventure.
There are still many avenues to explore, and my love for this material is intense. I’m concentrating my energy and expertise on offering you an ethical and harmonious solution.
Before ‘Parementerre’, I was renovating earthen buildings, which kept me up to date with the latest techniques.
