INDIVIDUAL HOUSING MARSEILLE
The project is located in the center of Marseille. This small house was to come creeping into a very narrow plot (3.5 m wide). Designed for lonely personn, i wanted to show the interaction between the using of living and the urban context in which man is placed. The house is made of wood siding that comes to tighten or expand, depending on the activity that the practical man in the day. The living room is overhanging on public property to interfere in the life of the neighborhood while keeping other areas of the house in private.

BOAT STATION MARSEILLE
This project is the result of a collaborative team (8 personns) during a workshop for school. The program asked to rethink this part of Marseille on the coast by imagining a network of boats to replace traffic very present in this part of city. We used architecture’s style of the port made with metal beam and sheet in order to design a giant shed. Several activities would coexist (neighborhoods and trade). « le port de la pointe rouge » is a pleasure port requiring a redevelopment in boat’s storage. Our project had provided additional space for future storage of goods and ships.

Continuing the theme of the redevelopment of the coast, the beaches of Marseille is a dynamic place where many leisure activities coexist. This project was to regain lively of the beaches by providing a link between frame on one side and the beach on the other. This sequence allowed me to create a building that unfolds accordion to offer three distinct activities: a museum, an outdoor cinema and a walk with bathing huts. The project was to purpose an activity that can be practiced on a small area and keeps an appeal in relation with the beaches of Marseille activities.

MARKET FORUM IN BELSUNCE MARSEILLE
In old part of Marseille, in a very dense of the city, we were offered the exercise of the hyperdensity in a commercial area. The program grouped 12 000 m ² cinema, market, hotel, sports center and school. We have seen an approach to architecture as a remedy for a quarter who needed heavy breathing spaces. The project can be seen as two hills that blends face, dug to accommodate the street that marks the plot. Terraces can provide spaces outside to watch the activity and allow the rest.

VERTICAL CASBAH MONACO
In the remainder of the exercise of the multi program initiated in the district of Belsunce, we studied the vertical density in a particular place for the land cost: Monaco. Tertiary program had to be attractive and architecture was reported with this need. The austere facade of Monaco and the high altitude of the land has allowed us to glimpse an architecture to both sides. The compound has an outdoor grill from a traditional office, the other with the heart of the building is cantilevered box of a casbah, which extend to the sea. The different areas are nested one in other to provide terraces above vacuum.

REDEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIAL PORT MARSEILLE
The subject of my degree was in Marseille in the northern districts. He started with the exercise of land development bordering the commercial port. This place is made of small town meets in the village interspersed with large social housing. We tried to give consistency to this area by planning a slab on which we extend the residential cloth. Designed as a kind of large-scale terrace, this habited slab allowed to answer the issue of traffic as fence to urban development.

HOUSING TRANSITION MARSEILLE
Building on the work undertaken for the masterplan, my degree has moved towards the massive construction of housing in the northern districts. I wanted to show a sequence of different kinds of housing that originated in the village cores of existing site and extending over the slab to reach a large monumental whole. This work sequence allowed me to develop different housing toutjours always with the common vision of the sea view.

MINI CITY LATINA

PROGRAMM: offices+library +swimming pool SURFACE:

YEAR:
September 2008
The student competition was to imagine the architecture project around historical buildings. This one is located in Italy, an industrial town near Rome called Latina. The program is organized with the creation of 5000m² of office as a benchmark with the rehabilitation of the water-tower on site. This monumental building made in concrete is a remarkable feature of the site and can offer a particular neighborhood skyline. We decided to include the silo in a system of modular office building. This grid s extends over the entire surface of the plot and develops with the modules of the office floors that fill some void. We tried to imagine the future of the site showing the evolution of jobs (the growing need to provide more surface area). The silo and the grid would become as inseparable elements of a small business district.

POPUP XL EVERYWHERE
Small budget, small project. Minimaousse is a competition that aims to promote small modular architecture suited to different uses. This year’s theme was childhood. With appropriate scale, the object should be for children a way to escape, to dream, to play. We thought the object as a book designed with children’s size. An XL pop up in which he can fully go inside to experience the stories and not make the play. The book unfolds in all directions, can be move to allow children to share his adventures with others.

PROGRAMM: Housing for homless SURFACE:

YEAR:
Mars 2011
As the name suggests, this student competition imagines architectural production through the promotion of steel. The program is based on creation of an inhabited bridge or a bridge to live is to choose from. We saw a way to combine the program a recurring fact of life in cities: housing the homeless. Paris subway is a typical element of metal architecture. We wanted to combine two structures: those existing skytrain and housing wealth we wanted to create. The idea was to interfered in the small suburban house appropriate to the scale of the body for people on move. These small hotels are a sloping roof rail mounted and placed on the existing bridge beams ipn and slide.

THE HILLS HAVE EYES HAUGESUND
We chose a site in Norway to study the habitat in a town small enough for the country. The need was to promote a territory which is the entrance to town, trapped between two system planning: pavillionar cloth and modern grid of town. Program imposed a significant densification, the challenge was to give to a new neighborhood identity architecture that enhances Haugesund. The main boulevard of the city was a blind barrier noise and harmful. We decided to hide under development we create. So individual housing can come to invade the plot in a grid system that recalls the establishment of this modern area. Thus we create a hill remarkable for its rising skyline looking fjords and the distance.

This project was an experiment in how to design housing in line with the mode of living of the student. Located on the campus of Paris, this project would represent an environmental object that meets the needs strong in terms of renewal energy. The cylinder provided the optimal characteristics for the transfer of air. The rooms surrounding a central atrium with inputs renewed air by vegetation climbing.

The site provides a defense XTU to have high visibility in the French capital. The 47-story office built around a central core triangular bioreactors are numbers 5000 and spread over the trays or the need to build corridors to accommodate the technical performance networks.
