Special Mention – Reveal the City: the Telhu’Halle

AUTHOR(S) — Julie Heathcote-Smith (FR), Florence Vita (FR), Julien Oblette (FR), Kevin Viel (FR), Architects; Caroline Lluch (FR), Architect, urbanist TEAM POINT OF VIEW — The town of Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine is intrinsically linked to the industrial economy. The proximity of the refineries creates a limit between both territories; our approach aims to reveal the town hidden behind. By focusing on four production cycles —innovation, hospitality, attractiveness and participation— that link programs, uses and spaces, the image of the town can be revitalised. The project strategy is to create a new centrality around a clear public space, mixing new and existing programs. In response to the challenges of climate change and with regards to the energetic transition, a sustainable design process is put into place inspired by the idea of a local and circular economy.
