In 2018, the future members of Bureau Motifs founded Les Ateliers FC. A mixed football club that explores football as a pretext for design projects and a way to build community.
Each project is an opportunity to question football and its objects: shirt design, patches, armbands, flags, ball bags, benches, but also the organisation of event-matches, our travelling international competition, or other activations.

This project challenges us daily to maintain the balance between sport, people and creation, while managing event organisation and working towards our development goals.
In this context, we have established innovative sponsorship and collaboration formats: with textile kit maker SKITA from 2022, creating a 'laboratorio' of design-led exploration, then today with MITRE, sponsor and partner in bringing our ball bag to market.
