As a newly qualified architect, each of my projects represents more than just architectural design; it’s an ongoing exploration towards the architecture of tomorrow. My practice is deeply rooted in ecological awareness, where I constantly strive to find sustainable solutions by using local materials and integrating my designs into their natural environment. With an unwavering commitment to innovation and sustainability, I am determined to shape a future where architecture and nature coexist in perfect symbiosis.

MARCHEPRIME
Reactivating the former Plumain factory through living.
The emergence of major industrial crises has left many abandoned sites in decline, such as the former Plumain factory in Marcheprime. These sites, which are often polluted and oversized, pose major economic and environmental challenges for local communities.
In addition, the debate between demolition and conservation of these industrial buildings reflects tensions between heritage preservation and urban development.
By drawing on local resources and superfluous waste produced by the town of Marcheprime, the project focuses on an approach that requires us to redefine the manufacturing processes of current construction materials.
The idea is to study methods that exploit waste and resources from the bioregion as raw materials for the growth of mushrooms, and more specifically mushroom mycelium, to make building materials, thereby offering a concrete response to the environmental impact of this type of industrial legacy while promoting a more responsible approach to construction.
It’s a project aimed at a transition towards new practices that are more respectful of the environment and centred on the resources offered by the region in which it is located.

ANIMATING THE STREET
Wooden modules placed on parking spaces
Nestling in a small town in the Lot-et-Garonne department, on the banks of a river and rich in character, the Tonneins tobacco factory has a special significance for the town.
Halfway between the railway station and the historic town centre, this impressive building covering more than 2.5 hectares saw the light of day in 1872.
A vector of fluctuating economic influence over the years, today it stands for a square that no longer serves its former purpose. Its location, the views it affords over the city and the attachment it enjoys from its citizens make it a delicate subject that deserves all our attention.
It’s a question here of combining a striking industrial past with new uses that are better adapted to the scale of the city and are part of a new dynamic.

LACANAU
Living on the Lacanau seafront in 2100
Lacanau is a seaside resort in Gironde.
It has over 5,000 inhabitants, 71% of whom are second homes, and its main economic sector is tourism. Today, like all coastal areas, Lacanau is under extreme threat from erosion and rising sea levels due to climate change.
As Lacanau is located on an oceanic coastline, coastal drift moves from north to south, resulting in significant shifts in sand and sediment, causing severe erosion and a 2m/year retreat of the coastline.
We have therefore devised several strategies for adapting the area in order to create a city that is mobile and on the move, in the face of rising water levels. We have decided to adapt to the situation and promote a ‘coping’ approach.
One particular block will serve as an example, bordering the city’s seafront and the main shopping street. Elevated by one storey, it will give free rein to nature and enhance the site with its lightness and adaptability.
