Stiff + Trevillion Architects Year: 2016 Program: Residential tower Role: Project team - Part 2 Assistant
Location: Vauxhall, London Stage: Stage 2 Image credits: Stiff + Trevillion Architects
This is a project for a residential tower and two lower buildings in Vauxhall, London. This project is part of the Battersea – Nine Elms development. It is a 36 stories high tower comprising circa 225 apartments, ranging from one bedroom to the penthouse type. The two colors ceramic pannels dressed facades and the brass railing windows recall the projects of Hans Kollhoff and Chicago skyscrapers. My task comprised graphic documents, work on plans, sections, facades and details, as well as a study on the reception areas.

Location: Avenue de France, Paris Stage: Stages 1 - 2 - Construction Permit Image credits: NP2F Architectes
This project concerns the interior design of a restaurant in the Massena neighbourhood in Paris. My task lasted from the design phase until the construction permit, and was done in collaboration with the client. This work included surveys on site, sketches of the general organization, drawing of plans, sections, axonometries, perspectives, making of organization and atmosphere models, and meetings with the clients. A decorator realized the execution phase. The general organization is composed by two major elements: a concrete bar, and a glass and steel volume containing the kitchen and services.
NP2F Architectes Year: 2013 Program: University campus Role: Project team - Part 1 Assistant
Location: Bordeaux Stage: Stages 1 - 2 Image credits: NP2F Architectes
This is a proposal for the evolution of the campus of Bordeaux university. The complex from the 1970s was left unfinished, and since then the campus and its context evolved, alterating the grid of the original project. The proposal aims to restaure a certain coherence to the campus while allowing a certain flexibility for the future uses and buildings. The project relies mainly on the creation of three polarities: a plaza, a park and a walway.

Dominique Perrault Architecture Year: 2011 Program: Refurbishment of office towers Role: Project team - Part 1 Assistant
Location: Boulogne - Billancourt, Paris area Stage: Stages 2 - 3 Image credits: Dominique Perrault Architecture
This project involves the refurbishment of the Pont de Sèvres towers, a 1970s complex built around an elevated esplanade. The structure and the volumes are preserved, while the programs, facades, accesses, distributions and gardens are renewed. This project is combining the metabolist architecture of the original project by Badani and Roux-Dorlut with Perrault’s minimalism. My task involved the production of documents facilitating the conception of the project during stages 2 and 3 (APS / APD), which were divulgated to the client and technical partners. Those tasks included the making of models of the façade modules, of accesses and of the global volumes, as well as CAD drawings of façade details and plans of the technical areas.

Location: Euralille 2, Lille Stage: Survey on construction site Image credits: Dominique Perrault Architecture
This building is located in Lille, in the Euralille area. It is a mix-used program, including dwellings, offices and stores. The programs were delivered on different dates, so the site included several different phases. My task comported the survey on site of defects in construction (OPR / RÊserves): structure, facades, windows and occultations, finishes, utility shafts, luninaires, landscaping, signage‌

Rural avant-garde Date: February - July 2015 Program: Revitalization of a city center Role: Project with C-E. Delprat N. Paulot C. Fauvel
Location: Sainte - Ménehould, France Professors: Frédéric Bonnet, ENSAVT Clients: Sainte-Ménehould, Département de la Marne
The mayor of a declining small town wants to renew the city’s attractiveness, and dreams of becoming the « capital of colours ». Instead of giving a graphic packaging to this project, this counselling approach tends to articulate the project with Sainte-Ménehould’s reality and to elaborate a coherent chronology of actions. A phased operational process proposes several actions, not only architectural, which generate the necessary stimulations for the awakening of the city. Some of these actions are already operational, for example the organization of an art festival, the opening of an artists residence in an abandoned historical building, or the elaboration of planning tools. This strategy aims to articulate moments of intensity with quotidian life in this city in the countryside: Sainte-Ménehould will be both rural and d’avant garde.

Date: October 2014 - February 2015 Program: Evolution of an economical area Role: Project with S. Pelloquin C. Rives F. Diodato
Presented to the Atelier International du Grand Paris
Location: Lieusaint - Sénart, Paris metropolitan area Professors: Frédéric Bonnet, Eric Alonzo, ENSAVT Clients: Lieusaint, EPA Sénart, Ministery of Housing
This project – presented to a ministerial consultation and to the Atelier International du Grand Paris – accompanies the growth of an economical area in Sénart. Thinking the future evolutions of this sector at the city’s boundaries is an opportunity to interrogate the economical programs, which are too often unthoughtof the urban fabric. Thanks to a structure redefining the project’s area, the analysis of the programmatic typologies, the elaboration of a regulatory tool and the drawing of three case studies, this work seeks a new way to council economical activities with the contextualised making of cities. This project defines a new regulatory and spatial dispositive named section. It is comparable to a farm’s courtyard: buildings and programs come and go, but the typological form persists.

Acquario di Milano
32 Date: February - July 2014 Program: Oceanographic museum Role: Personal project, diploma
Location: Giardini di Porta Venezia, Milan Professor: Jacques Lucan, ENSAVT
This aquarium is a pavilion in the Indro Montanelli park. The façade is a screen made of a double glass wall and curtains: it shows through the reflections the internal landscape from the park. The main element is a single double curved surface built in on-site concrete, which serves the research of an «emergent grid». This shell determines the structure, the program’s organization, paths and spatiality. On one side water, on the other side air. The concave and convex shape two levels opened one towards the other. Within each of those levels the properties of the two entities are inverted: each of them is insular on one level and then continuous on the other one. By conditioning the paths, this organization creates the visit’s scenario: the access level is continuous and proposes a promenade, while the underground level is made of rooms connected to each other by tunnels, determining pedagogic itineraries.

Palazzo Goldoni
36 Date: October 2013 - January 2014 Program: Housing Role: Project with D. Chambrin J. Aubert
Location: Via Goldoni, Milan Professor: Eric Lapierre, Jacques Lucan, ENSAVT
The city centre of Milan is remarkable by its large-scale housing and office buildings that often evoke a medieval imaginary. The project is feed of these references. It is a unitary building, a folded volume creating two voids in its surroundings: a courtyard and a garden. The two facades are covered by dressed stone, the Milanese ceppo. The panels’s display shows their thickness and the construction process. The complexity of the apartments plans produces a gap between the perceptive experience and the mental reconstitution of their organization. The dispositive provokes a changing experience of the apartment, thanks to the several circulation systems and the two geometrical systems ruling the composition. The multiplicity of the possible paths generates a domestic inhabitation always slightly different : the apartment seems larger than what it actually is.

Brooklyn Boogie
42 Date: October 2012 - January 2013 Program: Concert hall Role: Project with C. Munari T. ReniĂŠ
Location: Greenpoint, Brooklyn, New York City Professor: Eric Lapierre, Jacques Lucan, ENSAVT
This music centre is located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. This neighbourhood facing the East River is remarkable for the proximity of typical early 20th century new-yorker housing buildings built in bricks and of oftenabandoned large-scale industrial buildings, which use to be home for the merchandises arriving from trade ships. This project integrates this context, with its large bricks facades. It Is an ordinary monument. Each volume corresponds to a program, so to a typology: plan libre for the museum, a vertical centred hall, a horizontal directional hall‌ A central atrium assures the general circulation. Thanks to this complex volumetry the project appears as an assemblage of different buildings, reinforced by the equivalent treatment of the interior and exterior facades.

Bellastock
48 Date: May 2010 / May 2011 Event: Student workshop and festival Role: Member of the organization committee
Location: Paris metropolitan area Attendance: 650 / 1200 participants Construction theme: Sand bags / Inflatable
The participants start on an empty site with a project. Each team is equipped with the same stock of materials and builds its own shelter for the festival. The participants dismantle their construction on the last day, and restore the site in its primary condition. Bellastock creates a urban micro situation in which ephemeral architecture, construction experimentation and alternative urbanism are combined. I had the opportunity to integrate the 2010, 2011 and 2013 organization committees.
Pyramide Date: Spring 2016 Event: Weather Music Festival Role: Proposal - Autopromotion
Location: Le Bourget, Paris metropolitan area Client: Surprize! Evenementiel Construction theme: Scaffolding, visual mapping
This proposal for a music festival pavilion is located in the National Museum of Aeronautics, within the Bourget Airport (Paris). The constraint of a scaffolding structure guided the design of an archetypal, even form: a step pyramid. This configuration presents three main places and uses: the elevated terraces allow views on the crowd and on the museum’s machines (space rockets, aircrafts‌), the central atrium surrounded by walkways is a hall for concerts and social gathering, and the polycarbonate facades are the support for video mapping.

Totem
50 Date: Fall 2015 Event: Totem Festival Role: Design - construction of a wooden tower
Location: CerisĂŠ, Normandy Attendance: 370 participants Materials: Pine tassels - Wooden pegs
For this party everyone comes with an idea, and proposes a special skill : so comes the project of a totem, a sculpture that is a gathering point. Together with a few friends we designed and built it. While burning, the totem became a foyer, an emblematic and welcoming spot. We faced the constraint of fire by designing a wooden tower made of three nested modules, each composed by four braced gantries and cladding elements. This structure is made of pine tassels of three different sections, and all the assemblies are made of wooden pegs, so that everything is combustible.
