@ M AT E O A R Q U I T E C T U R A ESMA MONTPELIER contest and building permit of a graphic arts school and 360 student residences in Montpellier, France SPANISH CITY masterplan of a new neighborhood in Yiwu, China
ESMA MON T P EL L IER 2016-ongoing MONTPELLIER FRANCE ...I arrived at the office in the middle of the contest, which we eventually won two months later. Since then, I’ve been participating in meeting with the client, working through all the phases, sketches,building permit, until the tender documents.
The university is part of a larger urban project that aims to reconvert a military barracks close to the centre of Montpellier into a ‘creative city’. The first three floors host an university of graphic arts, video games and cinematography. The remaining floors contain 360 student residences, a garden and a gym.
This is the view of the building from the entrance of the military barracks.

SPANISH C I T Y 2016-2017 YIWU CHINA ...after the delivery of the contest of Montpellier, I worked on an urban project in China. The project was done in collaboration with a chinese office, for a public client. There were several phases organised over the time of a few months, with very tight deadlines. The purpose was the creation of a spanish-influenced neighborhood.

GR AND PARIS E X P RE S 2016 PARIS FRANCE ...TGTFP was commissioned to do some feasability studies around the future metro stations of Grand Paris Expres - on the lines 14 and 16. Our job was to anayse the sites from an urbanistic point of view and propose future buildings that could go with the metro stations. My job was the graphical representation of these projects, whether by drawings or 3D views (sketchup+vray, photoshop).

L ESSER TOWN SQUARE 2014 PRAGUE CZECH REPUBLIC ...Inspired by Alfons Mucha’s litographies, we set on to transforming the face of the Lesser Town Square, now occupied entirely by a parking lot. The idea of centrality is translated in the shape of a cercle, present in every element of the square, from the pavement to the furniture.
