MARKET HALL Second year project - 2015 Place: Toulouse, France Collaboration: Pere Finãna Guaralla
The old market of Victor Hugo, located in the main center of Toulouse is well known for being the first parking-market built in the city. However, sealed inside a huge and old building, the market often goes unnoticed by the public. Being part of the city’s heritage and taking an important place in the citizen’s hearts, our main interest was to open the market on its environnement by extending its limits and creating new interactions with the local businesses surrounding it.

Mass plan
CONCEPT
The idea of this project is removing the old building where the market is contained and making place to a wide open halle in which both sellers and shoppers can gather and share good moments. The halle roofing would be in contact with the buildings facades, a way for the local businesses to be part of the market’s bubble and strenghten ties between users.
STRUCTURE The main structure consists in multiple posts, with a tree form, holding a coffered metalic roof. This structural system allows to free the space by having a limited number of posts. The material used for this purpose is steel, providing a light and prefabricated structure, easy to assemble on site.

POST STRUCTURE The metalic posts are divided into two main parts: the bottom part is embedded in the ground, the top part is connected to the beams with a bolting system (red part). The beams are connected to the polgonal box with a bolting system (blue part). The beams size can vary depending on the desired under-roof height. The structural system used enables the easy transmission of compression forces to the ground. It also makes it easy to assemble posts with the prefabricated polygonal boxes directly on site.

VISUAL CROSSING
02
VISUAL CROSSING First year of master project - 2016 Empalot neighborhood, Toulouse, France Collaboration: Anais Grynberg Empalot is located in the south of the city of Toulouse (sector 5). It is one of the few large neighborhoods with typical housing of the 1960s. Empalot is a geographical entity which has many assets: green quality spaces, the Garonne river, large facilities nearby (swimming pool Nakache, Stadium) and a significant number of public services in the neighborhood. The Empalot district is home to 5685 inhabitants and 2664 main residences. Some of its housing has become obsolete in view of the new criteria of comfort and energy performance, and the commercial square in the heart of the district has several malfunctions. (pictures below) The aim of this project is to refurbish the neighborhood’s center by offering new quality spaces and especially by rehabilitating an existing building.To open the district to the city by developing relations with the surrounding districts: the island of Ramier, Saint-Michel, Saint-Agne and take advantage from the presence of the Garonne to enhance the neighborhood. All these points will help improve the status of Empalot and highlight it’s potential.

Urban plan - Ground floor
Urban plan, R-1
Before operating on the existing building, a replanning of the close environment was necessary. In this project, we suggest a complex of new public services (offices, library, nursery, event room next to the church..) where the neighbors can gather and share a good time. Our main goal was to create transversal crossing which allows to connect the heart of the plot to the close neighborhood’s and to the river. Our goal was also to create a new place next to the church in order to increase it’s value and open the neighborhood’s entrance. Urban plan - longitudinal section
After rehabilitation:
R+2 plan
The new project offers housing for 2 to 5 people. Some appartments take advantage of a second level where sleeping rooms remain. To access the appartments, it is necessary to take common passageways. Each appartment has a priavte balcony with a view on the river in the horizon. The ground floor is wide open, which allows to have common spaces with a wide view on the building’s surrounding.

In each level, duplex appartments are in extremities. The ones in Red are appartments where 4 people can live, the blue ones for 3 people and the yellow ones for 2 people. The duplex appartments offer a hight quality living space, with a double height wich allows to take a dvantage of natural light and a wide view on the nature below. The appartments in the center are simple ones, with no second level. Less luxurious but certainly meet the actual requirements for a confortable housing.

DANCING COMPLEX

DANCING COMPLEX Third year project - 2015 Place: Lisle-sur-Tarn, France Collaboration: Claire Gouze
The site of this project is located in Lisle-sur-Tarn, a small town near the city of Toulouse, built in the 16th century and classified as international human heritage. The project is situated in the limits of the city center, near a vast and private wooded area; making the place really calm.The main idea of this project is the creation of a polyvalent space which includes several types of activities, where the town’s residents can gather and share good moments all together. The program evolves around: one main hall, where weddings and multiple events can be held, two dancing rooms, four offices and three function houses. As cited before, the town’s particularity remains in it’s architectural heritage. The debate was then about the way the project can interact with the existant and whether or not the destruction of previous constructions was something irrelevent.

Public garden as a center/ private courtyard overlooking the wooded area.
Plans & Sections The dancing complex, the polyvalent room and the houses are on different floor levels. The aim is to create a public/private separation. The houses are located on the street’s extension and have a south orientation, giving them some privacy while the rest of the program is raised of 90cm. A ramp next to the public courtyard allows access to the upper level.
Conserving old parts of the city’s heriatge was very important to us. Our response to the problem was simple. The old building assigned to our project is where dressing and storing rooms are kept while the small medieval bridge is used as a way to connect the building to the dancing complex.

The dance halls are located on the first floor of the second building. The large windows on the east facade allows the users to have a view of the garden and the nature on the horizon. The lighting system used is a shed system, oriented east, which captures natural light and reflect it throughout the room. The users can then take advantage of a uniform light and a wide view while dancing.
Town’s rule: 80% of the facades overlooking a public space must be made of brick.

Details
The exterior gallery connects the polyvalent room with the dancing complex. The gallery’s roof is supported with a range of concrete posts. The light coming down those various posts guide the visitor and give a certain rhythm to the course. The exterior gallery is also a way to connect the heart of the city to our project. It’s a sort of intermediate space which allows access to our project’s entites and connects them.

THE OUTDOORS LIBRARY
03
THE OUTDOORS LIBRARY First year project - 2013
The ourtdoors library is a project devoted to promoting dialog and exchange between readers. A place where context does not matter, and time does not count.The reader can have a moment of respite while enjoying his favorite books and little will matter what surrounds him. For the concept, it is quite easy, a wooden box within a larger one where shelves act as walls. The light effects created by the shelves conforts the peaceful and serene atmosphere.
The library walls and shelves are made of wood, a natural material which provides high thermal and acoustic performance. It also helps create a warm atmosphere suitable for reading. After choosing their book, the users can either sit on wooden steps, also containing books or use movable pufs. Over all, the major goal of this project is for users to be able to exchange all around a book that they particularly appreciate.

Third year workshop - 2015
The walls of this mini-model were made of concrete. The aim of this project was recreating a mini-construction site by following the same steps as in a real life construction.
