"It’s a place that doesn’t exist, so we decided to build it."
- Frédéric Chevalier, Founder
thecamp is a place where explorers from all over the world come to live, work and inspire each other to develop solutions for an more humane and sustainable future.
Nestled in a pine forest on the edge of Aix-en- Provence and Marseille, its organic and futuristic architecture designed by architect Corinne Vezzoni recalls nomad encampments, versatile and existing in symbiosis with the environment.
As both a physical space and a human ecosystem, thecamp creates optimal conditions for transformative experiences, for deep collaborations that couldn’t happen elsewhere, and for on-the-ground experimentation.
An experience
that aligns comfort with values
Every aspect of the on-campus experience was designed with sustainability and the local natural setting in mind.
Workspaces designed for collaboration
In our light-filled cylinders inspired by cellular forms, teams have optimal conditions for getting ideas flowing and making them reality.
Living spaces for unwinding and recharging
Our accommodations combine minimalism with comfort, and are built from sustainably sourced natural materials that work with the Mediterranean climate.
A taste of low-impact eating
In our restaurant, we’re experimenting with 100% vegetarian cuisine, prepared onsite with fresh ingredients. It’s a way to limit our environmental impact and awaken curiosity about new ways of eating.
