CONSTRUCTION OF THE SOCIAL CENTER OF DEAUVILLE
AWARD-WINNING PROJECT
Execution of all graphic documents
In the context of my mandatory master’s internship, I was tasked with participating in several competitions. For the creation of the social center in Deauville, I was entrusted with producing all graphic documents.
To best meet the expectations outlined in the program, we developed the following themes:
Creating a building capable of seamlessly integrating into its context: The project is located on Rue de Verdun, a residential street in Deauville characterized by:
Townhouses with 1 or 2 floors, sometimes with attic space, Alignment with the street or setback for small gardens, Gardens at the rear,
Traditional and high-quality materials: brick, wood, cut stone, plaster...
To harmoniously integrate into this context, we had the following objectives:
Working on a domestic scale despite the size of the project, creating continuity with the street landscape of Rue de Verdun, which mainly consists of single-family or semi-detached houses. Using facade materials inspired by the tradition and history of the city.
Harmoniously integrating different entities within the same building. Creating shared spaces that can be differentiated according to different schedules.

WATER AS AN ARCHITECTURAL MATERIAL
Master thesis - Distinction - October 2020 to March 2021
Supervisor: Cyrille Faivre-Aublin
Problem statement : To what extent does the architectural staging of water as a telluric and atmospheric phenomenon enable the unification of places and people?
Method : Comparison of two projects through drawings, decomposition of sections...
• Thermal Baths of Sidi Harazem by Jean-François Zevaco
• Lalla Yeddouna Square by Michel Mossessian
Vitruvius dedicates the eighth book of his work De Architectura to water, presenting it as one of the four elements: WATER, EARTH, FIRE, AIR. He explains how to find and analyze water.
Water is a chemical element that, like air or light, affects tectonics, stereometry, the envelope, and the hearth.
This thesis focuses on two complementary projects: the new Lalla Yeddouna Square in Fez by Michel Mossessian and the thermal baths of Sidi Harazem by Jean-François Zevaco.
Through these two examples, I seek to understand how architecture interacts with water, showcasing it in a way that ultimately transforms it from an economic object to an aesthetic one.
We discover in Lalla Yeddouna Square how water, through architecture—whether allegorical or concrete—brings people together. Finally, through the case of the Sidi Harazem thermal baths, we understand that water, in a more concrete manner, seems to give birth to architecture but also unites places and people.
Water, as a material, can be assimilated to an element of composition in the architecture of Lalla Yeddouna Square and the unifying thread of the Sidi Harazem thermal baths, where every drop is recovered, where everything is measured, and nothing is left to chance.

A BERBER MUSEUM ALONG THE WATER
In continuation with my thesis, which focused on the theme of water as an architectural material, my choice for my final year project was the city of Fes, specifically a site named Bab Makina. This site is traversed by a river that gives it a distinct identity.
The question addressed by this project is: «To what extent does the architectural staging of water unify dissociated structures?»
The current state of the site reveals an area surrounded by ramparts, secluded and traversed by neglected waterways. Three structures adjoin:
The Makina, a former arsenal left abandoned and to be transformed into a library within the project scope.
Bab Makina Square, a historic square where one of the ramparts, made of rammed earth, forms an abandoned aqueduct.
A vacant lot, the museum site proposed by this architectural intervention project.
At the urban scale, the project involves creating a riverside promenade through the redevelopment of riverbanks. This includes establishing a water reservoir to supply the promenade during dry periods and prevent centennial floods. A water channel (seguia) is designed to flow successively through the Makina, the square, and the museum, continuing on to merge with the water from Jnane Sbil Garden nearby.
At the architectural scale, the museum highlights Berber culture through a design where the promenade is rhythmically guided by water. The museum comprises three main parts: the primary exhibition space, where light is filtered through inverted shells forming gutters.

THE MEDINA AS INSPIRATION
LA MÉDINA COMME INSPIRATION
The climatic conditions of the city of Fes necessitate protection from the sun. Thus, following the logic of the shaded alleyways of the medina, one of the museum’s experiments involved designing a roof that echoes the general appearance of the sunshades in Fes Jdid. The goal was to propose a filtering roof whose shade pattern would punctuate the ground.
This inspiration came to me through analyzing the arcades of the kissaria at the Sidi Harazem baths, which seemed to be inspired by the sunshades of the medina.
Les conditions climatiques de la ville de Fès impliquent de se protéger du soleil. Ainsi, dans la logique des ruelles ombragées de la médina, l’une des expérimentations du musée a consisté en l’élaboration d’un toit repren- nant l’allure générale des ombrières de Fès Jdid ; L’objectif étant de proposer un toit filtrant dont l’ombre de sa trame viendrait ponctuer le sol. Cette inspiration m’est venue grâce à l’analyse des portiques de la kissaria des thermes de Sidi Harazem qui m’ont semblé être inspirés des ombrières de la médina.
THE GRID OF THE MAKINA AS A PROJECT PREMISE
LA TRAME DE LA MAKINA COMME PRÉMISSE DU PROJET
It seemed logical to choose a grid for the museum equivalent to that of the Makina, which is 5m by 5m. Thus, on the roof of the museum, we can see a grid similar to that of the old arsenal, although the footprint on the ground differs.
Il m’a semblé cohérent de choisir pour le musée une trame équivalente à celle de la Makina qui est de 5m par 5m.
Ainsi, pouvons-nous lire en toiture du musée une trame équivalente à celle de l’ancien arsenal tandis que l’emprise au sol diffère.

d’un des patios du centre culturel
ALONG THE PATIOS, ALGIER
The site of this cultural center is the result of the assembly of different urban voids in the Casbah of Algiers, overlooking it and thus enjoying a panoramic view of the sea.
This project consists of two buildings located on two different plots with varying levels, exploiting the elevation to allow rooftop promenades, turning the museum into an infrastructure. The building on the first plot houses the museum, featuring a sloped roof that leads to the roof of the second building. The latter serves as an underground extension of the museum and on its ground floor, a restaurant inspired by market halls found in Spain or Portugal.
The restaurant, composed of kiosks, offers a culinary discovery of Algiers while providing a view of the sea. The basement (-1) includes discovery workshops where visitors can cook their own dishes.
Regarding the views, the project highlights the sea. Thanks to the sloped terrain, different viewpoints of the sea are possible during the promenade. As one descends, the sea becomes less visible, but two courtyards are integrated into the route to compensate for this. These courtyards subtly evoke the courtyards of the Casbah houses without attempting to replicate them. They allow light to enter the buildings and create a play of perspectives. When strolling on the museum’s roof, the first courtyard reveals itself, while walking on Rue Hamidouche unveils the second courtyard, although it is not accessible. Similar to the Casbah house courtyards, its privacy lies in being visible yet inaccessible to the public eye.
