botanical garden (Montpellier, France)
THE THEME OF THE EXHIBITION HAS BEEN A STARTING POINT TO THE DESIGN PROCESS. THE PAVILION IS IN A STATE OF BALANCE ON A LIGHTLY SLOPED SITE. THE OBLIQUE EVOKES EXPRESSION TO THE BUIILDING.
SPORTSMEN POSTURES DURING THE PRACTICE AND GIVES A DYNAMIC
THE SHAPE INVITES THE VISITORS TO THE ENTRANCE AND PERMITS THE EXIBITION TO BE PARTIALLY PROTECTED AT THE OPPOSITE OPENING. THE LATERAL OPENINGS ARE PROGRESSIVELY LARGER FROM AN END TO ANOTHER. A CONTRAST BETWEEN THE INNER AND EXTERIOR MATERIALS PERMITS A DISCREET INSERTION IN THE SHADOWY SITE AND A SIMPLE SCENOGRAPHY INSIDE.

one house for two Rue de bugarel (Montpellier, France)
SECOND YEAR DESIGNED WITH ALICIA JOSEPH-Theodore
THE SITE IS AN INTERMEDIARY BETWEEN TWO SPACES, TWO LIGHTS, SOUND AND VISUAL ATMOSPHERES : THE PUBLIC PARK AND THE BUGAREL STREET. WE NEEDED TO DESIGN ONE BUILDING FOR TWO DISTINCT FAMILIES, INCLUDING A COUPLE WITH TWO CHILDREN AND A PERSON LIVING ALONE. OUR FIRST APPROACH WAS TO GIVE A PERSONAL NTERPRETATION OF THE SITE AND THE PROGRAM, FROM WHICH A DUALITY EMERGED.

FIRST FLOOR
THIS LED US TO COMBINE OUR PREVIOUS CONCEPTS (IMBRICATION AND DUALITY)TO CREATE A NEW ONE : DUAL IMBRICATION. IN THIS WAY WE WANTED THE TWO SPACES TO BE INTERTWINED SO THAT WE COULD READ THE TWO DISTINCT ENTITIES AS A WHOLE THAT PRESENTS OPPOSITIONS AND CONTRADICTIONS.

south facade FROM THE OUTSIDE, THE DWELLINGS CAN BE DISTINGUISHED THANKS TO THE DIFFERENT CONCRETES. A SMOOTH WHITE CONCRETE IS OPPOSED TO A RAW CONCRETE. OPENINGS ARE ALTERNATED : THE STUDIO OPENS ON THE STREET WHILE THE DWELLING OPENS ON THE PARK. THIS SPATIAL CONFRONTATION IS TO BE EQUALLY PERCEIVED FROM THE INSIDE TO THE OUTSIDE.

FIRST YEAR OF MASTER DEGREE
clairlieu (villers-les-nancy, France)
THIS HOUSING PROJECT IS LOCATED IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD OF CLAIRLIEU, IN VILLERS-LES-NANCY, IN THE NORTH-EAST OF FRANCE. THIS CONTEXT WENT THROUGH A RADICAL URBANIZATION, CHARACTERIZED BY 1600 IDENTICAL HOUSES WHICH PRODUCE A PARTICULAR CITY PATTERN. IN THIS SCALE, CLAIRLIEU DOESN’T HAVE ANY PROPER PUBLIC SPACE OR FACILITIES, EXCEPT A SUPERMARKET AND TWO SHOPS, OR THE URBAN PARK. INDEED, THE FIRST IDEA WAS TO RECONNECT THE PARK TO THE EXISTANT “CITY CENTER” BY PERMITTING THE SITE TO BE CROSSED FREELY.
THE PROJECT IS COMPOSED OF 65 DWELLINGS DIVIDED INTO 7 BUILDINGS. THE DWELLINGS ARE TWO-ROOMED APPARTMENTS TO FIVE-ROOMED APPARTMENTS AND USE THE SAME SPATIAL PRINCIPLE. EACH BUILDING HAS A DIFFERENT GROUND FLOOR ACCORDING TO THE PART OF THE SITE IT OCCUPIES. THE LEVEL 0, ORGANIZED AROUND A LARGE RAISED PUBLIC SPACE ORIENTED TO THE MAIN VIEW, IS RESERVED TO PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IS DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE MAIN ROAD OF THE NEIGHBOURHOOD.

THREE TYPOLOGIES ARE INTELOCKED AROUNG A CENTRAL VERTICAL CIRCULATION LEADING TO AN ACCESSIBLE ROOFTOP. THIS WAY, THE RESIDENTS CAN HAVE ACCESS TO A GREAT PRIVATE SPACE AND CAN ENJOY A PANORAMIC VIEW ON THE SURROUNDING HEIGHTS.

detailed plan
EACH DWELLING IS ORGANIZED IN A CENTERED SCHEME PLAN THAT CONTAINS AN OPENED KITCHEN, AND ONE OR TWO BATHROOMS. EACH BLOCK ALSO INCLUDES STORAGE AND SHELVES SO THAT LIFE CAN TAKE AROUND IT. THERE ARE NO CORRIDORS, ONLY TRANSITIONAL SPACES.

interior perspective
THE INTERIOR BLOCK CAN BE SEEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING THANKS TO THE MATERIALITY CHOICE.
THIS LINEAR PERSPECTIVE VIEW WAS INSPIRED BY THOMAS BATZENSCHLAGER’S BOOK « L’HABITANT TEMPORAIRE». IT IS ABOUT REPRESENTING AN INHABITED FLAT WITHOUT ITS INHABITANT, BY INSERTING DETAILS FROM DAILY LIVES HABITS.
ITS WOODEN FACADE DIFERS FROM THE EXTERIOR CONCRETE ONE.

cultural and associative center LES FOURCHES PATIBULAIRES (MAXEVILLE, France)
FOURTH YEAR project selected by maxeville’s townhall and nancy’s agglomeration
plan
THE SITE IS LOCATED ON A FORMER INDUSTRIAL PLOT IN THE SOUTH OF JEAN PROUVÉ FACTORIES. IT IS DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS BY A 9 METERS HIGH EMBANKMENT SLOPE.
THE PROJECT IS DIVIDED INTO 10 PARTITIONS, INCLUDING A CINEMA (1) , A MUSICAL HALL (2), A CAFE (3), A DANCE STUDIO (4) AND THREE ASSOCIATIVES STUDIOS (8). SOME ELEMENTS ARE SPECIFICALLY
TO GAIN VISIBILITY FROM THE TRAFFIC WHICH IS ON A UPPER PART, THE CULTURE AND ASSOCIATIVE CENTER IS ON THE NORTHERN PART OF THE SITE.
RELATED TO MAXEVILLE’S CULTURE, LIKE THE TWO WORSHOPS SHEDS DEDICATED TO THE EDIFICATION OF ECCENTRIC GIANT MACHINES (6-7) OR THE ALTERNATIVE CABARET DEDICATED TO ALTERNATIVE
THIS PROJECT WAS A FREE PROPOSAL
-
THE AIM WAS TO DESIGN A
COMFORTABLE AS HOME BUT AS PUBLIC AS WORKPLACES.

mODERN TIMES
PROCESS PICTURES WERE EXTRACTED FROM EXHIBITIONS, PLACES, BOOKS OR RANDOMLY FOUND ON THE INTERNET WERE COLLECTED DURING THE PROCESS. THEY WERE CHOSEN BASED ON ASSOCIATIONS WE COULD FEEL BETWEEN THE SITE ATMOSPHERE, THE FORMER AND CURRENT CULTURAL ACTIVITIES WE HAVE IN MAXEVILLE.
sections EACH INTERIOR ACTIVITY CAN BE ORGANIZED OUTSIDE THANKS TO POSSIBLE PROLONGATIONS OF THE SPACE. A LARGE LINEAR EXHIBITION SQUARE ON THE WEST CAN OFFER A SNEAK PEAK OF THE ACTIVITIES FROM THE METZ HIGHWAY, WHILE THE CAFE ON THE RIVERBANK CAN INVITE WALKERS IN THE CULTURAL AND ASSOCIATIVE CENTER.

BRABOIS
THE GOAL OF THIS INTERNATIONAL ARCHITECTURE WITH RENAUD HAERLINGEN FROM ROTOR, OUR ATTITUDE WAS NOT TO DESTROY THE SITE OR TO RESTORE IT BUT TO CONSIDER IT AS A SET OF BUILDINGS FULL OF PRECIOUS ARCHITECTURE ELEMENTS. FOR EACH BUILDING, AN INVENTORY OF THE RESSOURCES WAS MADE TO REVEAL THE CONTENTS OF «BRABOIS QUARRY». IS THE NAME OF THE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS IN
NANCY.
ITS MAIN PROBLEM IS ITS STRONG DISCONNECTION FROM THE CITY CENTER.
WORKSHOP WEEK WAS TO FIND A WAY TO RESOLVE THIS BY WORKING WITH AN RENOWNED ARCHITECT, IN HIS WAY OF THINKING THE PROJECT.

THE HETEROTOPY (FROM THE GREEK WORDS TOPOS - PLACE- AND HETERO
- OTHER) IS A CONCEPT ESTABLISHED BY THE FRENCH PHILOSOPHER MICHEL FOUCAULT IN HIS CONFERENCE OF 1967 CALLED « DES ESPACES AUTRES». HE DEFINES HETEROTOPIES AS A PHYSICAL LOCALIZATIONS OF UTOPIES. TANGIBLE SPACES THAT ACCOMODATE IMAGINARY.
THE BURNING MAN IS A ONE-WEEK FESTIVAL ORGANIZED IN THE DESERT OF BLACK ROCK IN THE WEST COAST OF THE USA.
VARIOUS ARTISTIC REPRESENTATIONS
ARE CREATED FOR THIS EVENT.

37 DESPITE THE SCATTERED PERCEPTION WE CAN HAVE FROM PICTURES TAKEN FROM THE GROUND, A PRECISE URBANIZATION PLAN HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO DELIMITATE AND ORGANIZE THE TEMPORARY EVENT.
DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF FULLY ANALYZING THE BURNING MAN WITHOUT EXPERIENCING IT, I CHOSE TO EXTERNALIZE EVEN MORE MY POINT OF VIEW.

trolltunga (odda/NORWAY) ACCORDING TO THE FRENCH PHILOSOPHERS GILLES DELEUZE AND FELIX GUATTARI, A RHIZOMATIC APPROACH TO THE SYSTEMS COULD BE A MORE EFFICIENT DESCRIPTIVE MODEL THAN THE ARBORESCENT FIGURE BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBILITIES OF MULTIPLE CONNECTIONS, HETEROGENEITY WITHIN A MODEL , AND NON-HIERARCHY. THE AIM WAS TO DESIGN A BUILDING BASED ON RHIZOME’S THEORY PRINCIPLES BY USING THREE NOTIONS, AND PRODUCE A MODEL OF IT.

EUVILLE’S QUARY USED TO BE ONE OF THE GREATEST STONE EXTRACTION SITE IN FRANCE. DURING THE XIXTH CENTURY, THE EUVILLE’S STONE WAS RECOGNIZED FOR ITS TECTONIC FEATURES AND WAS USED FOR MANY CONSTRUCTION WORKS. AMONG THEM, YOU CAN FIND THE HAUSMANNIAN ARCHITECTURE, LE GRAND PALAIS AND MANY MORE NOTABLE BUILDINGS IN PARIS. DESIGNING AN INTERPRETAION CENTRE FOR THE EUVILLE’S STONE WAS AN ARCHITECTURAL WAY TO HONOR ITS HISTORY AND A CONTEMPORARY USE OF IT.
