Jouin Manku

Founded in 2006 by Sanjit Manku and Patrick Jouin, Studio Jouin Manku is an international architecture and interior design practice based in Paris. The studio explores how people experience space and how design can create emotional connections, bringing architecture, interiors and objects together rather than treating them as separate disciplines. Its work spans residential, yachting, hospitality, architecture, retail and office projects.

Guided by a search for distinctive, memorable experiences, the practice combines creative vision with technical innovation, cultural research and artisanal tradition. Each project develops through research, dialogue and collaboration, drawing on the expertise of craftspeople and specialists to turn an initial ambition into a realized environment. The studio seeks to challenge established design conventions while balancing poetry, materials and technology.

Its projects include Maison Van Cleef & Arpels in Hong Kong and Seoul, Park Hyatt Tokyo, La Mamounia, La Pergola, Kensho, and Infiniment Chocolat by Pierre Hermé. Through this varied portfolio, Studio Jouin Manku creates considered spaces shaped by their purpose, context and the people who use them.
