Jean-Michel Wilmotte (born 1948 in Soissons) is a French architect.

Biography

Jean-Michel Wilmotte, born in Soissons in 1948, studied interior design at the

Museum of Fine Arts
.

Jean-Michel Wilmotte earned his degree in architecture in 1993, allowing him to work on large scale and to develop the concept of "interior design of cities", while maintaining the same attention to the use of "noble materials and extreme attention to finishes" notable in his smaller scaled works. Over the years, the agency has diversified and operates primarily in five key areas: architecture, interior design, museology, urbanism and design. An attention to details allows Jean-Michel Wilmotte and his team to work from the smallest to the largest scale: moving from a house to a skyscraper, from a shop to a corporate headquarters, from a gallery of art to a museum, and from street furnitures to urban design.

Currently, the Wilmotte & Associates agency has 185 employees from 40 different countries. It has now taken an international and multicultural dimension, with projects in over twenty countries around the world. The firm is established in four locations: Paris, Sophia-Antipolis, London, and Seoul.

In 2005, the Wilmotte Foundation was created to promote the urban craft through the W Prize, with the goal of helping and encouraging young architects. In 2010, according to a study by UK magazine Building Design, the agency is listed in the world ranking of the 100 largest architecture firms, holding the 73rd spot in 2011.
