SELFRIDGES LONDON RENZO PIANO BUILDING WORKSHOP - GENSLER Oxford Street, London, UK Senior Partner: Giorgio Bianchi. 143 783 m² / 1 547 667 SF 650 000 000 € / 888 000 000$

The mission is to devise a contemporary rehabilitation of a building built in the early XXth century. The key idea of the project lies in the fact that it is an “urban gift” to the city of London: a public park on the roof of the edifice. The new building acts as a new component; linking the original structure to the classical construction by adding an extra level to the building, placed on top of the latter. This combination will establish a strong connection between the new and the old. This tension is emphasized by the “Street”, a space of prime circulation generously lit by an atrium. This “street” represents an ideal link between the Old Lady and the new building, thus becoming an essential element of the architecture.

La mission consistait à concevoir le Selfridges du XXIème siècle à partir de son bâtiment historique. L’idée majeure du projet réside dans un cadeau urbain à Londres : un parc public sur le toit du bâtiment. Le nouveau bâtiment vient comme un objet, comprenant un étage supplémentaire, posé au dessus de l’édifice classique. Dès lors une vibration forte s’établit entre l’ancien et le nouveau. Cette tension est marquée par la “street”, espace de circulation principale, et généreusement éclairée par un atrium. On pratique la street entre le Selfridges historique et le Selfridges de demain. The team consisted of four people, with whom I worked during 7 months. My main task was to develop the proposals and to produce models, plans, sections, and diagrams as well as 3D renderings.

Au sein d’une équipe de 4 personnes, pendant 7 mois, mon travail consistait au développement conceptuel dans sa représentation à travers la production de maquettes, plans et coupes , de schémas et perspectives 3D.

View of the Park on the roof : The Cherries Vue du Parc sur le toit : Les Cherries.

The “street” is central to the system. Both its ends form entrance points to the ground floor. Its structure identifies it as the main space of vertical circulation. On the roof, reinforcing the same axis, the Cherries become landmarks of the London landscape, acting as a viewpoint and a place where different events can take place (small library, meditation room…).

La “street” est au centre du système. Ses extrémités forment des entrées au rez-dechaussée. Sa structure marque le lieu principal de circulation verticale. Sur le toit, et dans le même axe, les cherries marquent un signal fort dans le paysage londonien. À la fois belvédère et lieu d’évènements, ces maisons dans les arbres surplombent le parc.

SAN RAMON CITY CENTER RENZO PIANO BUILDING WORKSHOP - BCV San Ramon, California, USA Partner: Antonio Belvedere. Vision 657 900 m² / 7 081 700 SF City Center 51 420 m² / 553 560 SF 185 000 00 € / 250 000 000$ San Ramon is a typical example of the American suburb. The idea behind the project is to answer the need for a new central space for the city. The study is made of two parts: - A vision: a masterplan to transform the existing tertiary area into a dense commercial and residencial place. - A schematic design of the the city center.

San Ramon est un exemple typique de la suburb américaine. La demande née de la necessité de créer une centralité nouvelle. L’étude se compose en deux temps: - Une vision, masterplan générale à une zone tertiaire pour la transformer en un territoire de densité commerciale et residentielle. - Une étude approfondie ( shematic design) sur le developpement architecturale du city center.

During 11 months, in a team of 4, I worked intensely on the project. I worked on the production of diverse study models, revit model construction and development as well as the visual conception of site plans and renderings. Parmi une équipe de 4 personnes, mon rôle a été générale à l’avancement du process. La production de maquettes d’études, la construction du modèle Revit et son développement, la conception graphqiue des plans masses et la réalisation de perspectives 3d ont formés un intense quotidien pendant 11 mois.

“Urban Nature” is an urban model of medium density that seeks to preser ve space and nature, an essential characteristic of the suburb. The masterplan therefore alternates axes of urban activities and axes of countr y stroll ing. The city center building follows this logic, envisioned as a closed object surrounded by a large piazza, featuring a rooftop above the retail floors that becomes a series of green terraces. in addition to serving commercial purposes, the piazza and the terraces are also designed to house a public space dedicated to life, meetings and urban happenings. The exercise therefore concentrates its efforts on each of the ingredients that comprise the fabric of a city. Le concept développé est celui de l’”urban nature”, un modèle urbain de densité moyenne qui conserve l’espace et la nature, caractéristique première de la suburb. Ainsi, s’alternent dans le masterplan axes d’activités urbaines et axes de flânerie paysagère. Le bâtiment du city center s’inscrit dans cette logique. Composé comme un objet fermé autour d’une large piazza, le toit des deux niveaux de retail, donne lieu à une succession de terrasses paysagères. La piazza et les terrasses ne sont pas seulement rotule de la distribution commerciale. Elles forment un espace public dédié à la vie, la rencontre et aux évènements citadins. L’exercice tire donc tout son intérêt dans les ingrédients que constitue la fabrique de la ville.

FERTILE INTERFACE GRADUATION Tutors : Didier Rebois / Thibault Barbier / Stéphane Bonzani / Chris Younes

The northern Parisian suburbs attracted my attention for their complexity. The challenge was to make something integrate into this ever mutating environment as well as to anchor this proposal, enabling it to create new horizons on this promising territory. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Rail Network restructuring at the entrance of Paris. Reconnecting the East/West in order to offer an alternative to the dominant concentric layout Paris offers. Opening horizon points to put urban components in perspective. Relationship of city/nature.

L’analyse de ce territoire complexe fourmillant de projets, d’acteurs, a nourri la réflexion qui fonde l’ancrage du projet. Il semble important de s’intégrer aux mutations en cours tout en prenant le parti de faire de cette interface un territoire fertile ouvrant de nouveaux horizons. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Restructuration du réseau ferroviaire aux portes de Paris. Reconnection Est/Ouest afin de sortir du rapport radiocentrique à Paris. Ouverture d’horizon paysager permettant de mettre en perspective les composantes urbaines. Relation ville /nature.
