Habiter #10 - Nicolas Reymond, Architect: “Metropolitan Imaginaries”
© NRAU
The conference will focus on presenting some of the projects by the NRAU (Nicolas Reymond Architecture & Urbanisme) firm, centered on the theme of collective housing in dense urban environments. Varying widely in scale—from small multi-family buildings to urban-scale projects—these projects seek to establish a new connection between the intimate scale and contemporary urban issues.
Offered as part of semester 3’s teaching on the question of inhabitation, this conference is intended for Licence 2 students and teachers, and is open to the public subject to availability.
