Parfums Christian Dior
The Enchanted World of the Couturier-Parfumer
Couturier-parfumeur. C'est ainsi que se définissait Christian Dior. Fondée en 1946, la Maison boulversa à jamais les codes de l'élégance féminine. En imaginant ce nouveau siège social, c'est cet héritage et cette audace qu'il fallait retranscrire.
"Communiquer l’âme de la Maison Dior dans un bâtiment IGH - contemporain, fonctionnel mais très éloigné de l’appartement de l’avenue Montaigne - a été un vrai défi. Rentrer dans la Maison Christian Dior c’est entrer dans un univers, une histoire, un patrimoine. Il a fallu infuser l’esprit d’excellence dans tous les lieux du bâtiment." - Michaël Bezou, directeur de création S&P.

Bringing the refined craft of perfumery into every detail
Previously spread across four different locations, the 1,400 employees of Parfums Christian Dior are now united under one roof at KOSMO : a 31,000 m² workspace spanning 12 floors and 3 interconnected buildings. More than a simple relocation, it marked a true transformation.
Now home to Dior’s fragrance teams within the LVMH Group, the 14 story, 27,000 m² complex underwent a full-scale rehabilitation by the architects at Ateliers 2/3/4, who reimagined the space to embody the spirit and excellence of the House.
The headquarters embodies the signature codes of the House of Dior, carrying forward its rich heritage, from Montaigne grey and lush gardens to Parisian apartment style, cannage patterns, and Southern charm.
But beyond aesthetics, the interior design reflects a high standard of precision and intent. Everything, from ergonomics and acoustics to views and natural light, has been designed to reorient the workspace toward the outside world. This sense of openness is amplified by visual transparency and the generous presence of terraces, making the building truly one of a kind.
Couturier-parfumer. That’s how Christian defined himself.
Spaces Designed for Experience
Instead of a standard office tour, here are the emblematic spaces that bring the Dior spirit to life:
La Galerie Dior: A timeline-like corridor that tells the story of the House, its icons, creators, and timeless signatures.
Recruitment Salons: More than a welcome, a full immersion into Dior’s world from the very first encounter.
The Agora: Perhaps the building’s most remarkable space. Designed for all employees, it hosts gatherings from intimate team meetings to large-scale assemblies.
Le Jardin Dior: A green, tranquil patio inspired by the gardens of Grasse. With its long banquettes and soft alcoves, it echoes the warmth of grand Parisian brasseries.
La Pergola: A restaurant flooded with natural light, offering a bucolic lunch break amid flowers, a taste of Normandy in the city.
Panoramic Terraces: Over 2,500 m² of landscaped terraces and balconies. From the Arc de Triomphe to the Eiffel Tower and across the Bois de Boulogne, the views are simply breathtaking.
Ergonomics, acoustics, views, natural light...
