Spring 2024 - Autumn 2024 (President) (Director) (Expert) (Former student)

The airport as a Gate. Leaving a territory undergoing intense change, with unknown consequences. If one returns, what will be discovered?

The airport becomes a refuge, a landmark in a hostile world. A door to another place, whether it be bright or dark. A door to hope, to survival.

The flight is no longer just magical. It is also revealing and violent. Passengers fly over empty oceans, remnants of burned forests, arid valleys and canyons, and glaciers-stripped mountains. Travelers are confronted with the reality of the Anthropocene, laid bare before them.

The airport becomes an emotional and sensitive envelope in which sights, sounds, and textures awaken a vanished world. It is a totem, a modern relic.

The migrant must find hope here. Their journey will never end, but they will be safe in this space. They can settle peacefully, contemplate the past, the present, and... then dream of what will be.

They are not alone, and the architecture accompanies them on a preliminary but essential psychological journey for their departure.

The airport begins its transformation, becoming a shelter, a temple, an escape.

unicursal maze

Continuously modified since World War II, Bodø Airport is set to be demolished and rebuilt a few hundred meters further south. This decision, surprising today due to its ecological and environmental consequences. Thus, decision was made to root the project in a fictional narrative.

The current airport needs to be rebuilt and it will be, but at its present location and with a vision for the future. How can we create a space for the year 2100? How can we sculpt an architecture that has now become an object?

This is the focus of this diploma project, born from a need for travel, research, and discovery, fueled by the dream of flight.

But plagued by anxieties and uncertainties about an unpromising future.

It was necessary to dissect this tumor and decompose it into totems symbolizing places and atmospheres.

That was the first step.

The design is the second step, and it is on the way.

PASSERELLE(S) brings together two programs: retail and housing, which intertwine and insert themselves into a 19% levelled area.

A work of modeling, arising from a personal will to make the inhabitants of this site benefit from all the possible qualities that the investment of a levelled territory can offer. The optimal position of the project allows it to take advantage of qualitative views on the valley floor and the surrounding hillsides.

The shops, in direct link with the street and the square, allow a dialogue between the lower and the upper slopes. The materials allow for integration into the landscape, and offer a play of mirrors between vegetation and minerals.

The housing, of two types (residences for young workers/ students/elderly people, as well as crossing apartments for families) linked by these footbridges and shared intermediate spaces allow a social mix beneficial to everyone, while offering a landscape and topographic continuity between each building.

Finally, the underground parking lots, as well as the bicycle garage linked to the street and the funicular station, are intended to be the springboards for a reconsideration of the use of soft but active mobility in this territory previously conceived and regulated by the individual car.

Located in the historic city center of Troyes, this project is both urban and architectural. It revitalizes the stopper, while offering to the Mitantier Street a thickness, a purpose, a use in agreement with the history of the city. The street becomes a street dedicated to textile and its current issues (recycling, reuse, ...).

Very narrow and with a strong perspective, we visualized the street as a path, a stage, a catwalk. The lighting and urban design were chosen with this in mind. The lighting system only illuminates the ground and the clothes of the passers-by in order to highlight them. The faces are then only indirectly lit, silhouettes stroll around.

In the street, «Tissage» is a central project, a showcase of the ideas and intentions of the project. The site, not very welcoming due to the presence of multiple typologies, made the implantation of this building rather complex. A real work of the connections with the existing had to be realized.

The building is placed on the square, and is integrated into its site through its forms. It allows to link the existing building, to soften its rough forms. The very large glazed surface allows the continuity of the view towards the heart of the block, and thus the exposure of the interior space of the building. The work of the designers is thus exposed and highlighted. The innovations are in full view.

A building-bridge, a school, a path, a planted promenade. The constraint of the railroad tracks and the rail traffic coming from the Gare d’Austerlitz makes the project.

A high construction allows the emergence of unique views on the strong architectural elements of the city of Ivry-sur-Seine and its surroundings. The direct proximity to the transport networks (present and future) makes the place easily accessible.

«Traverse» takes possession of the surroundings of the railway to make them attractive. As a vector of knowledge, the project does not simply link these two banks. It emerges from the Parc des Cormailles and becomes the supporting point of the latter for its crossing of the tracks. At each of its two ends, the project fades away in the form of a gentle slope.

The school is no longer just a school, but a place of listening and observation. A place of life in which everything is linked. In addition to crossing the railroad tracks, this school becomes a social and cultural link, but also, and above all, a physical link. A link accessible to all, allowing a reunification of the green frame of the city.

Urban wasteland development

Being confined alone, in a shared apartment, or in our parents’ house made us think: how could the ideal apartment be, capable of adapting to its owner and to his needs? In a wider way, how to think the plot as a whole. A space in which the inhabitants could produce, learn, live and relax, whatever the conditions?

The work on the plot was done in groups. The four of us transformed this wasteland in front of the Père-Lachaise cemetery into a space designed for its inhabitants. A space in which the latter have a central place. They no longer suffer their space, they shape it.

The «Cascade végétale» project is located along the Boulevard de Ménilmontant. It is a complex of 4 buildings. An office building, a research building (with a hanging garden), and two buildings of housing with evolving surfaces. Each dwelling is delivered with a kit of partitions, fixed on rails integrated in the floor and the ceiling. The user can thus arrange his space as he wishes. In addition, each dwelling has a terrace with a retractable veranda. The interior surface can then be increased, and a new room can then be fitted out.

LABORATORY GARDEN

Terraces with retractable verandas: the occupant can, according to his needs and activities, benefit from additional living space.

The units have no partitions. Rails are built into the floor and ceiling, and a kit of removable partitions is provided to the tenant/owner, who can then arrange the interior as he or she sees fit.

The volumetry of the project reduces the effect of the heat island. The heart of the site is protected and cool. The use of deciduous trees also ensures a certain coolness.

MOUVEMENTS

Year: Automne 2019

Function:

Street dedicated to young workers

An invitation to explore, an architectural link between two typologies. A building adaptable to new ways of living, working, creating and evolving.

The plot of land on which the project is developed is located near the Place de la Nation (11th arrondissement), at the intersection of the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine and our passage, the former Rue des Immeubles Industriels.

Therefore, the project was thought as a landmark, a kind of lighthouse, a guide. An obligatory point of passage to get out of the parallelism of the street. To pursue this idea, each level curves and undulates in its own way. This allows the creation of exterior spaces for each dwelling, but also creates a movement.

The building guides, attracts. It acts as a center of gravity. The passer-by glides, follows its undulations, is guided. He passes from a parallel and monotonous world to a rhythmic and nuanced passage...

Mouvements is a place of life, but also a place of work, of creation, of gathering. Thus, one finds workshops adaptable to the needs of each one on levels 1 and 2, as well as an open space on the ground floor, then housing for the artists.
