Founded in 2009 and based in New York, we make physical environments, digital landscapes, brand strategies, installations, and creative code.

Parc Office creates spaces and experiences that communicate, educate, and engage. We transform big ideas into meaningful design. Our practice is driven by a desire to seamlessly integrate digital technology within physical environments. At the heart of each project is a belief that design can, and should, foster significant, meaningful interactions and experiences.
