CONCRETE
PAPER
Traumnovelle is an architectural practice who believe that architecture is more than the design of buildings;
it is a tool for world-making and community-building. Founded by Léone Drapeaud, Manuel León Fanjul, and Johnny Leya,
Traumnovelle explores the intersection of architecture and fiction, using both as critical and creative instruments to rethink
how we live together. We engage in visionary projects that challenge conventional boundaries, shaping spaces that foster connection meaning, and a sense of belonging.
Our work is defined by a commitment to bold ideas and a multi-disciplinary approach that positions architecture as a force
for societal change. Each project is conceived as part of a larger narrative, a story that comes to life through space, form,
and material. At Traumnovelle, we champion projects that contribute to shared experiences and collective memory,
creating environments that are at once functional, inspiring, and provocative. We reject the ordinary and strive to design spaces that offer new possibilities for interaction and co-existence. Traumnovelle works hand-in-hand with clients to craft architectural solutions that not only meet practical demands but also reshape the way people inhabit the world.
We stand with those who believe in the power of architecture to build ambitious futures and transform the present.
