the first agency of color design in France

Founded in Paris in 1978 by Jean-Philippe Lenclos, a3dc is the first reference agency for color design in France, exclusively dedicated to color management. Today, a3dc is a collective of multidisciplinary experts passionate about the work of the color-material-finish trio.

the experts
of color

A renewed, multidisciplinary team, with different backgrounds and cultures, favors the complementarity and scope of rich skills. The common thread is the love, practice and expertise of operational color work.

color as a legacy

Returning in 1962 from Japan where he had the revelation of color, Lenclos opened his workshop in 1978, inventing a new profession, forming around him a first generation of colorists. From 1989 onwards, working in his workshop in the tradition of the master and his disciples, Lenclos passed on his expertise to the current team.
