Maison Boson Belleville is a private house of 135 m² with three rooms, listed for 35 people, in the Belleville area of Paris. It is run by The Boson Project, a consultancy that designs and facilitates company seminars, and it is rented to companies that want a closed place to work with their teams. The house is presented as a cocoon for disconnecting, away from the office, and hosts workshops, strategy days and conferences.
Seminars and company events
The house is sold to teams that want to rework a project, a vision or a way of working. The operator states more than twelve years of experience in designing seminars, with a method tested over hundreds of days on topics such as purpose, intergenerational management, strategy, cohesion, leadership and corporate social responsibility. A company can rent the house alone or ask for a tailor-made facilitated program. The team also brings in outside speakers for talks, including researchers, military officers, sports figures, executives and philosophers, which can feed a seminar agenda. Examples of client work on the site include reviewing the success or failure of a project to start a new dynamic, defining a vision, mission and values, and preparing a leadership course.
Rooms and capacities
The official page gives the house at 135 m² for 35 people over three rooms. The rooms are not named on the pages available, so the split between plenary and breakout space needs to be confirmed with the operator. The private nature of the house means one group takes the whole place, which suits a closed-door workshop or a board offsite. The operator runs a second house in Argenteuil, listed at 300 m² for 60 people over five rooms, for larger groups.
Catering
The pages available do not describe catering, so ask whether meals are prepared on site, supplied by a partner caterer or brought by the client. Because the house is built for full days of group work, this is a point to settle at the quote stage, with dietary needs and break times.
History and setting
Maison Boson Belleville also hosts public talks and debates on work, leadership and commitment at work. Past topics listed on the site include parenthood and work, intergenerational relations, the collective in the era of remote work, and a literary look at the world of business. These events show the house also serves as a meeting place for a community of managers, not only as a rental. The site calls the Belleville house eco-responsible and committed, without detailing the criteria.
Getting there
Google Maps places the house at 123 Rue du Faubourg du Temple, 75010 Paris, in the Belleville area. Check the exact address, the nearest metro station and arrival instructions with the operator when you confirm a date, as the official pages do not state them.
