Born in Colmar, Démians studied architecture at the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Versailles, graduating in 1987.[3]
Her mixed-use Quai Ouest project in the centre of Nancy has attracted considerable attention. Completed in 2015, the 10,000 m2 (110,000 sq ft) building with 640 oblong windows houses offices, a hotel and a number of stores.[4][5]
In May 2015, Démians won the competition for renovating the ESPCI ParisTech and converting it into a major research centre. Her design includes 38,000 m2 (410,000 sq ft) of additional space, mainly for laboratories.[6]
Since 1998, Démians has taught at the schools of architecture in Brittany, Paris and Berlin.[1] In 2015, she became a member of the Académie d'architecture founded in 1953, open to those who have made major contributions to architecture and urban planning.[7]
