DSA / QUALITY OF EVERYDAY PUBLIC SPACE / LILLE
Towards a metropolitan identity The degree of specialization and deepening (DSA) in architecture and urbanism allows young professionals to develop their skills in the field of urbanism beyond the architect’s degree. This study is financed by the urbanism agency of Lille’s metropolitan area.
This contextual approach means that everysite needs a singular answer. This work has to be realized at the street level, but also at the district and the city scale.
We’ve been given 15 various sites by the agency. We suggest a new classification based on the comparative Unlike singular, unique developments, history of different growth models as daily public space isn’t the object of well as permanences. Thus the proprojects by architects, planners, or land- ject is directly linked to the dynamic scapers. Their poduction is ensured by of the street’s constitution.

DSA / AN URBAN VILLAGE / NEVIAN
When risk designs the city The degree of specialization and deepening (DSA) in architecture and urbanism allows young professionals to develop their skills in the field of urbanism beyond the architect’s degree. The first semesters study focuses on the village of Névian. There are two sponsors, the municipality and the services of state (DDTM de l’Aude). Névian is a village of 1350 inhabitants in the close suburbs of Narbonne in the Aude departement. The mayor fears the unplanned urbanization of the village’s periphery whilst the city center is in decay. Paradoxically Névian wishes to accomodate the new inhabitants in a 7ha development between the railway and the rich scrubland. We 2014 _ ENSAVT Teachers F. Bonnet, C. Delmar, E.

the constraints related to water and its hazards. We base our strategy for the village’s development on the flood risk, at the North with PPRI and at the South with the run-off waters. We suggest that Nevian densifies whitin its limits, especially since we found enough land to accomodate population growth. Each of the three urban fabrics that constitutes the village, the center, the outskirts and the suburban, is an opportunity for a project. Three strategies are to be implemented in parallel. We focus our work on the historical center wich requires the most attention. Approaches financed by the state, such as ORI, are to be considered by the municipality and the DDTM.

Demolition / Rehabilitation Some districts in the old city center are congested and do not procide an adequate quality of life for housing. Demolishing a building, we had value to those around it. The municipality has played its pre-emptive right to demolish the building.

Construction / Rehabilitation The restored barn house will be used by associations as a meeting place. It plays a strong role in the social life of NĂŠvian. Behind it we esuggest building housing for the elderly close to the center.

Working class fabric
Barns: Multiple barns are abandonned less than 400 meters from the village center. Their renovation would allow farmers to diversify their activities (gites) and younger generations to stay.
Hollow teeth: The land potential in the working class fabric of the city could allow new construction. These lenghtly plots are used to build new housing close to the center, especially social housing.
Suburban fabric
Private developments that present a risk: Many of the houses in the north of the village are in the red zone of the flood ridk plan. For those homes that are only one story high, we imagine an extra stroy as a refuge solution.

PFE / INVEST THE PERIPHERAL BELT / PARIS
Requalification from the poterne des peupliers to the porte d’Ivry Porte d’Italie is a territory in mutation at the crossroads of various types of infrastructures, from the A6, the beltway and the N7. Its development is of major importane in the opening of Paris toward it’s peripheral area. To better understand the challenges of such a site we decided to undertake a prospective studi of work done on the Greater Paris, as well as the Port d’Italie, by agencies like TVK, ARUP and AREP. In our research we are working on three scales, the metropolitan scale, the intercommunal scale and the local scale. Each responds to specific urban concerns, but it appears that it is nec2013 _ ENSAPB essary not to consider them linearly Buildings & Pre-existent but as the result of an interleaving.

The mulitmodal hub, the equipment and the logistical pole and the housing units will be developed whereas other programs will only be suggested, so that the plan can adapt in time, to economic or politic changes. The coherence of the whole gives a social, economic and urban legitimacy to the works that will follow. Right: Paris on Paris Territory wise, we create a perimeter of governance that allows projects such as a green belt on the A86, or a territorial development scheme, such as the south beam in which the Porte d’Italie sector is. The goal is to move from a logic of concentric development to a rhizomic logic. In which case the different gates if Paris will become opportunities for new, well connected, centralities.

Above: Metropolitan centrality. Still at the metropolitan scale, but centered on the south of Paris, the stakes of our area of studies is better perceived. Porte d’Italie is located at the crossroads of three major pulses, the Saclay cluster, the Orly-Rungis service cluster and finally the cluster Seine-Aval. The futur route of the METEOR subway system and the railway that goes from orly to the boulevards marÊchaux comfort the importance of the site in the greater Paris area. Peripheral centrality: At the inter-district scale, we notice the importance of the Bièvre Valley and its optical landscape device, as well as the development of activities alont radials such as the N7 and the D5. These linear intensity perimeters are discontinuous at the beltway level, because of the massive mono-fonctionnal land estates. The remeshing of the network and the breakdown of the enclaves have to be put in place so that it can be a pleasant place to live.

PFE / URBAN TRANSPORT MUSEUM / PARIS
Programmatic and spatial transformation of an industrial enclave
RATP workshops (1930), preexisting the peripheral beltway, are forming a monofunctional enclave that strenghtens the discontinuity between the intramural and extramural of Paris. The RATP wishes for a mutation of its plot whilst keeping the activity linked to the maintenance of the metro line 7. A road is created by removing two frames of the south hall, to link the Porte d’Italie to the Porte de Choisy. In a second time, the activity in the covered hall is moved in a new building in the continuity to the North Hall.

Despite the current tren of decentralization of museums, the strong urban gesture and connection to a multimodal hub of territorial importance justifies the location of the selected site.
We suggest a mixed program, which can regenerate a place in decline or not activated such as the RATP plot.

It was decided to revive the idea of the “idefferent crossing of the infrastructure”, but make it possible through public space. The new facade accompagnies and facilitate the crossing of the beltway. Activities will vary over time in the public space with a system of programmatic adaptable stripes. Parallel to the beltway, a pedestrian mall follows the new road from Porte d’Italie to Porte de Choisy. Ancient columns are kept and remodelled as public lighting for the park.

IGLOO / REHABILITATION / PARIS
Heritage query on the remodeling of an “hotel pariculier”
The rehabilitation of a Parisian private hotel raises the question of the preservation and transformation of a composite building in the city and particularly in a neighborhood in which the preserving and the enhancement of the architectural heritage is essential. Indeed the classical PLU desn’t apply in this protected area of Paris.The consultation of plans of preservation (PSMV) is necessary before doing any rehabilitation works.

In Bordeaux, the right bank is the convergence between the Garonne on the one hand and major national infrastructures on the other (LGV TourBordeaux 2017).The major river crossing is on the site, it is made of the Saint Jean bridge, the railway bridge and the Eiffel bridge. It brings together all types of mobility (train, car, bicycle and pedestrian). Even beyond this crossing, it is the whole site which is caracterized by the theme of infrastructure and nature. The right bank, between the river and the hill, is now marked by its in-
dustrial past. The conservation of this heritage is also central to our thinking. The projects tries to creat a synthesis between nature and infrastructure to provide a strong identity. Facing the “stone city” will be the “nature city”. To make this possible, we designed a strategy through five associations:
1 Nature + Infrastructure (concept and context) 2 Modernity + Preservation (environment and identity) 3 Networks + Districts (mobility and urban fabric) 4 Daily + Exceptional (uses and sociability) 5 Strategy + Tactics (time and process)

Europan12 offers a reflection around the adaptable city, the site chosen by our team is in Assen, Netherlands. We were asked to rethink the urban development of a formerly industrialized district as well as two exemplary new architectural constructions.
2. Buil and innovate. The construction of two innovative architectural construction by the public sector will be a lever to initiate the private investments.
Since 2008, the municiplaity of Assen cannot assume on its own the cost of the initial urban project to restructure Havenkwartier. As a response, we suggest a new phasing in 3 sequences for the urban renewal.
The proposal at the architectural scale consists of two hybird housing buildings along the canal to initiate the transformation of the neighborhood. Each building answers the question of adaptability in a different way. The load bearing facade of the squared building allows it to have a flexible plan, while for the linear units, the empty gaps between the built volumes allox the residents / traders to vary their lifestyles or activities
1. Reveal what is already there.The waterway must be reconnected to the city center so that the inhabitatants can renew their relationship to the landscape as of today.

Urban hive; a praise to flexibility
Today, facing the acceleration phenomena, the world and time dematerialize. In order to “imagine the housing for tomorrow” we need to put time in the heart of the architectural and urban process.

The challenge for us is to invest in the periphery of the “consolidated” city. We start by identifying the abandoned urban spaces of the suburbia, so we can design an evolutive and flexible building that plugs on the existing fabric. By creating the city over the city (or infrastructure), we desify and activate territories in lack of intensity. The crane-building is made of a structural core around which prefabricated modules assemble. Thus housing can change over time and adapt to the everchanging ways of living and different family models
«Speed is the old age of the world [...] taken away by the violence we go nowhere, we content ourselves in going and divesting from the living towards the emptiness of speed. After having meant for a long time, the suppression of distances or the negation of space, speed now equals the annihilation of time: it’s the state of emergency. In fact the race comes from history as sublimation of hunting, its acceleration becomes destiny and destination. Hunter, farmer, sailor, pirate and knight, tank driver, motorist, we are all the unknown soldier in the dictatorship of movement...»
