AGRICULTURAL TOURISTIC VILLAGE MASTER 1 - ETSAG (SPAIN)- INDIVIDUAL PROJECT WHAT ? Project of a set of collective housing. WHERE ? Marocco, at the edge between the touristic city of Restinga Smir (close to Tetuan) and the moutaneous traditional and agricultural historic village. KEY POINTS To generqte a link between two strong contexts, the one touristic and the other one agricultural, including a different life style and urban development. To welcome three types of users who require different needs: The autoctone, the regular tourist and the occasional tourist. To settle the rule: ÂŤthe longest time someone spends on the spot, the biggest space someone has on the spotÂť including shared or negociated spaces. New life style and new form of tourism, more participative and closer to the autoctone are developed with knowledge sharing and common acrivities based on agriculture and gardening. Both architecture and vegetal. generate more or less collective spaces. This project aims to be in favor of continuity, development and protection of landscape heritage.

Territorial analysis and reinterpretation in urban zones of a theory on the ecological management of the territory, to re-question the potentialities of an urban border. Interrogation on the definition of the urban territory composition which brings to the identification of a zone of contacts, crossings, and particular tension corresponding to a border or an ecotone. To reconsider the dynamics of functioning of this border and work on the question of the back of commercial plots which are identified as sterile and at the origin of a negative functioning.

THE LABYPAUSE
CONTEST - CONSOLIS AWARDS 2014-2015 WHAT ? Our behaviour regarding food habits have changed over the past 20 years. Today, the average time allocated to lunch is arround 20 min. The food break offers the opportunity to experiment new postures different from he position at work, sitting at a desk. KEY POINTS The LABYPAUSE feature design is the result of the association of a variety of postures which have been selected according to ergonomic purpose and in order to meet the specific needs linked to different eating activities (coffee break, lunch break snack break, after work...) The module, settled on each of its faces, generates a variety of situations and spaces which are respectively appropriate for the different breaks of the day The LABYPAUSE can be used as a single unit or it can interact with other modules. It presents two different aspects depending on the spatial perspective, playing by compositions and rhythm with the context. On the one hand, from a lateral perspective, the LABYPAUSE presents a smooth surface, a protective envelope turned towards the outside, punctuating the urban skyline with its verticality. The surface of the furniture can possibly serve as communication or artisctic medium. On the other hand, from a frontal perspective, the LABYPAUSE becomes sinuous, alive and invites to take a break within its interiority. Its manufacture is economical both in terms of mold and raw material for a variety of postures and an easy set up.

NATURE IN THE CITY, URBAN ACTOR MASTER’S THESIS - ENSAN (FRANCE) INDIVIDUAL RESEARCH
How does the nature stimulate the emergence and the development of our western cities of the past and the present ? The idea od Nature can be related with the term «landscape» as a context, a passive and contemplative background, as well as with the term «environment» which refers to the milieu in which the human beings evolve and with which they interact. It is connected to the domain of art, the abstract and the mystical as well as the field of sciences, the concrete, the rational. The Nature, according to the Génèse, Rousseau, Descartes or also Marx, d’après la Genèse, Rousseau, Descartes ou encore Marx, appears as a raw data which, by definition, which is to the opposite of the human, the culture and, by extrapolation, the city. Nevertheless and more than ever in our time, the questions of urban biodiversity, ecological network, or environmental town planning seem to be very current topics. In Nantes, recently, programs of reflection such as the Project 2030 for My City of Tomorrow or the 10th edition of Ecocity about sustainable city issues, show this interest for the elaboration of new modes of planning and urban management, advocating the place of the nature in town. We can then wonder how the nature is finally compatible with the urban area and how it stimulates the emergence and the development of our western cities of the past and the present.
Les taches de petites tailles dispersées sur une grande surface agissent comme d’appuis pour le mouvement des espèces.
Les bords larges se créent du côté qui fait face à la direction des vents dominants et des expositions solaires.
La majeure partie des bords naturels sont curvilignes complexes et doux, progressifs, alors que les bords artificiels, crés par l’homme sont habituellement droit, simples et marqués.
Le groupement de petites taches de connexion apporte des cheminements alternatifs et redondants mais toujours de sorte à maintenir tout l’ensembleorienté linéairement entre les deux âches majeures. .
Les bords d’une tache fonctionne normalement comme un filtre qui limite les influences des alentours sur la tache intérieure.
Une tache, avec son axe d’orientation majeur parallèle à la route de dispersion, aura une plus faible probabilité d’être colonosée qu’une tâche perpendiculaire à la route de dispersion.
L’effet d’un trou au niveau d’un corridor dépend de la relation entre la taille de ce trou et l’échelle de mouvement des espèces, ainsi que du contraste entre le corridor et le trou.
Une enfilade de petites taches située entre deux habitats servent de points d’appuis pour le mouvement des espèces et moins elles sont éloignées, mieux c’est pour les espèces qui se repèrent visuellement.
D’un point de vue écologique une tâche optimale a un noyau circulaire pour la protection de ses ressources, des limites curvilignes pour une meilleure intéraction avec les milieux environnants et un système de prolongation sous forme de bras pour la dispersion des espèce et la «récolte» d’autres.
Haute connectivité et variété des circuits possibles. En cas de dispersion ou d’une rupture de corridor, les déplacements ne sont pas interrompus pour autant. Les zones d’intersection entre les corridors sont plus riches en espèce que n’importe quel autre endroit du réseau.
