3333 Broadway facing Columbia University expansion, Manhattan, NY
The project takes advantage of a rapidly evolving manufacturing neighborhood into a university campus to propose a programmatically diversified complex. It also criticizes an architecture period where the research of rentability has led to the creation of extremely large efficient and soulless building that uses standardization for economic purposes when it is a great way to express diversity. The site of the project is composed of a large housing building of 1200 apartments called the 3333 broadway. The biggest housing complex in the US when it was built, it is certainly one of the biggest housing complex never built in the world. It houses more than 4000 peoples At the urban scale, the main idea is to reinforce the connexion between the future Columbia university campus and the city of Harlem. This is done by extending the active urban layer conceived by Renzo Piano for the Columbia University project through the 3333. A public equipment will take place in the heart of the 3333. As an urban motor, it organizes the link between the north and the south of the site. Large terrace boosted by the activity of the equipment distribute vertical circulation that organizes this link. The central walking street his extended thought the 3333. This complex is both a destination and a link at the border of two neighborhoods fundamentally different. In opposition to the traditional stacking of autonomous program, the particular form of the equipment creates unattended and surprising situations where every program coexists with the other. At the connexion of the street and the equipment, a public plaza initiates the rise. Around the 3333, I propose the creation of a complex in rupture with the modern movement monster around which it stands. The main goal of this project is to bring the social question at the center. Deliberately critic of a modernist project that privileged quantity instead of
quality, the project propose an alternative, in the same block. The project’s environment allows particularly well to organize the cohabitation of differents communities in an original manner. The formal concept of the project : the use of a standardized grid for a modular building allows a large adaptability. The structural system of the project generates efficacy and versatility both constructively and programmatically. The use of a standardized grid allows mass production and minimize the final cost. Rather than offering an immediate benefit through savings on construction, the project proposes to invest in alternatives programs that helps improve the local quality of the neighborhood and the building. Those programs are called Hybrids Hybrids are the key element of a new urban model. They form an interconnected network of space that extend in multiple directions. This network allows the urban layer to flow inside the building. Because of their spatial dimension, this continuum dissolves the habitually strictly define limit between public and private space. They are a privileged canvas for spontaneous and informal interaction. A balance between private and shared space make the building different from traditional residential one. The project is a form of ecology of architectural convictions. First, it draws from the modern movement its constructive efficiency. From Le Corbusier’s Domino house and free plan to Mies Van der Rohe’s universal space, modern architecture is seen as the research of a space freed from obstruction. The structure’s impact on the plane is minimized, to produce a flexible space. Then, from TeamX years, the project take a humanistic ambition in its commitment, inventing a social project noting the city position in the Anthropocene era. The project organizes the life of a resilient community and thus present architectural and urban potential of our time. It plays with utopia without being only theoretical, to invent a new reality.

USITT Architecture and Theatre Student Design Competition - The Ideal theatre. Aggregate
The design of the theater and its curved roofs is based upon a sensitive and sympathetic approach to the context and nature of the surrounding park. The design encourages people to flow within a new cultural core that is linked to the rest of the city, and not necessarily connected to performance art. The flexible access welcomes the visitors from all directions. It serves as a key cultural destination for the community, considering the Ideal Theater for our client Phillipe Quesne as public space that appears open and democratic. The design process was also characterized by the idea of an Ideal Theater not defined by an ideal building but by a multitude of volumes with different functions. The volumes are bound together, they complement each other, communicate, give an overall picture of the project, form an aggregate. The notion of aggregate is used in this context for its ability to express both unity and diversity. Nevertheless, the fragmented volumes allow a strong integration with outdoor display and events and foster a link between the existing theater and its urban context. The circular masses create a fluid connection between the new theater hall and the two existing auditoriums, without countering their strong geometrical direction. The large circular foyer, which offers a visual connection to the outside theater, presents a base to which the different parts of the program are connected, and which fluidly guides the visitor the tree stages.The deliberately large space offers the possibility for diverse usability. The aim is to allow some sort of creative freedom that leads the visitors to linger, invites to any kind of activity besides the formal use of a theater, but always staying in contact with the places of scenographic art. This relation occurs through a finely studied circulation which implies that the theatrical action happens not only on the stage but within the visitors experience. The round theater hall results from tree circles that enclose in on each other and can be rotated in different directions. While the two inner circles can each either build the auditorium seating or the stage, the outer circle, besides function as a large annular scene, can be opened to the foyer balcony and therefore function as an extension of the artistic circuit.

Casablanca, living space
Situated in Casablanca, this project is a 1600 sqm floor area public equipment. It is the fusion of two public equipment that usually exists separately. A media center and a sports complex. The aim of the project is to pool activities beyond their simple addition. This center creates a space for shared activities while adhering to the goal of initiation exchanges between various users. The program placement and relationship produce a series of terraces that range from a public library and an amphitheater to a wide roof-terrace dedicated to sports. The building, intended to be a meeting place, is drawn according to its inertia : its ability to function 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The permanent opening of the building has resulted in the breakup of the traditional reception area in a space allowing a multitude of access. A wide space housing a slight vegetation and a series of walkways and stairs are informal places that allow visitors to meet, work, chat or relax. Users do not cross over in corridors, but in a space bathed in light. To avoid the labyrinthine spirit of the building, the activities themselves become the real facade of the building, as they are visibly displayed on the exterior of the project. The challenge for the visitors is to locate where he want to go and build a mental map of his route. Thus, the project involved the visitor orientation capacity, as a reminder to an instinct that seems to get lost today.

Steel competition - Universal hall
Set on central Champs-sur-Marne, the XXI century market garden greenhouse is a mix of steel, glass, and concrete : classic materials to dress a modern building, entirely dedicated to new ways of food production. Massive but sculpted to be curvaceous, this five-storey building is an urban activator close to a future main Grand Paris station. The size of the facade’s 126 arches was determined according to the dominant stresses. The uppermost portion, subjected to bending and compression is larger than the lowermost. Spaced at 3 m form one another, theses arches reach a height of 30 meters, which gradually decreases and results in an extremely smooth, soft and lightweight form. In order to maximize the amount of light penetrating the building, the arches are perforated. The presence of curvatures suggested the uses of double-curved glass modules of different sizes. The result is an architectural sculpture in which the enormous dimensions have been lightened with the use of steel and glass with were also selected for their cost effectiveness and flexibility of use as well as for the possibility of shortening the necessary construction time. Inside the cantilevered five floors which distributed the different function of the buildings overlook a large hall creating an interaction with the inside and outside, in a play of light and reflections.

Laval Virtual center
The city of virtual reality ambitions to lie in the center of the metropolitan area of Laval a new architectural object, around an innovative program that associate research, exhibition, and teaching. The invention of this city relies on a conception of works modes and new collaborations that encourage interactions. The program analysis shows tree type of users must cohabit, the public, attracted by the exhibition, the school members, and the researcher. First, the project decides to embody these three categories with three blocks. The three blocks are then sliced horizontally and separated vertically. The results space of this operation is the heart of the project which is now an iconic figure with a landscaping strength. Conceived as a continuous surface open to everybody this space can be described as the software that flows inside the hardware. A non-rigid space that carries interaction and allow for free movement of ideas.

Ivry Island
The exploration and analysis of Ivry urban situation led to this proposal. Situated on the banks of the Seine River, the project uses constraints as an opportunity to build a large multi-programmed complex. The presence of a flood zone in this area has led us to create a ditch which is also a park. When the Seine rises it enter the ditch and form an island. The Ivry Island project is a development project at the Seine border, a major axis of the grand Paris. Responding to current issues, it offers a large number of apartments and equipment in a key location.

Nomad, a cover for archaeological excavation
The project is located in the Arènes de Lutèce in Paris, one of the most important remains from the Gallo-Roman era. Nomad is a cover for hypothetical archeological excavations. The particularity of the site required a light structure that can be assembled easily for the period of the excavation. Because of the ephemeral character of the project NOMAD is conceived to be fully shipped in 4 shipping containers. Containers are modified to host different programs, delivered on site and stack together to form pillars. The cover is made of traditional wood trusses, dimensioned to fit in the containers. They are deliberately off-centered, to allow for the fixation of a double-curved translucent membrane.
