Bobigny Délire
par Maxime Caudrelier et Malaury Pierre, étudiants en M1
Everyone dreams of finding their El Dorado. Their oasis of freshness. A building that breathes, a green building where you can garden with your neighbors in the heart of a city. A place where you don’t just live in your living room, but in a variety of common spaces. Come visit your reality of tomorrow.
CASANOVA
by Alix Godfrin and Angèle Naudin, M2 student
Ordinary, yet strategic: an office building in Ivry-sur-Seine becomes the prototype of a systemic renovation. Replicable and adaptable, it mitigates and adjusts to the climate and its uses.
Waiting for the storm
by Romane Toussaint, M1 student
Where rain accumulates, the habitat becomes soaked. This project proposes rethinking the use of an office building as a true hydraulic machine in order to coexist with water. It offers a model based on ‘working with,’ welcoming water and transforming it into a resource rather than a threat.
From desk to plate, DÈMEN KA KILTIVÉ
by Morgane Lelouey-Rault, M1 student
In Guadeloupe, a vacant commercial building becomes a place that shelters, nourishes, and connects. An architecture that works with water, sun, and life to inhabit the climate before it imposes itself.
