Diploma project (jury’s congratulations)
The site of Bercy Poniatowski is characterized by a very strong presence of transportation infrastructure. This is an opportunity to build a new urban system in line with its specific context, another way to experience the city and its infrastructure. Moreover, the draft proposes a set of recycling systems and material processing.

In connection with the infrastructure and the Seine it is composed of a primary structure consisting of industrial chains producing building materials from materials rejected by the city. this first structure is made of concrete, it will then allow the establishment of a secondary structure, constructed from materials produced by the recycling chains.
