The 300 bedrooms hotel program to be placed on this litlle plot, near the Bastille Opéra, requires fom the beginning an important consideration for the context. Allow 15-20 Hospital to keep access to views and light is what defines the four stretched out towers typology.The project re-stages the end of the Coulée Verte, promenade stopping suddenly before. An adapted ramp to handicapped people, 200 meters long, punctuated by stairs, offers the walker a unique experience of passage from the Coulée Verte level to the street one. It provokes also his surprise and questioning about the hotel, feeling it above him, without being able to access it if he is not a client.

The ramp, end of the promenade, and the four towers are two distinct and additional entities.Inside the hotel, a play on vis-a-vis is created between bedrooms, on either side of the two vegetated atriums. Each bedroom is unique in its relation to its neighbors. The hotel offers an expe-rience outside Paris, a break in its fuss. A jungle developping inside serves inhabitants intimacy and provokes news uses.The suspended walkways are a pretext for always different paths inside the hotel. They are justified by the necessity of avoiding dead-ends, in case of emergency. They also are a pretext for the setup of additional programs: suspended gardens, libraries, lounges...

The Yearbook of Versailles Architecture School is its showcase outside the school. Constituting our mémoire, one year was needed for its realization.At the beginning was the question of the target: who is this book for? Students, architects or unini-tiated people to architecture? From this question came the will for the Yearbook to focus on school pedagogy, and to answer a question: what will be the city of tomorrow as seen by Versailles students?All projects received showed a great diversity of questionnings, and oriented the Yearbook to the concept of cloud computing. Indeed, all issues eventually intersect, and Cloud becomes finally the support of multiple students questions to be correlated.Four themes have been chosen: intensity, heri-tage, responsabillity and signal. Each is treated in diffrent graphic choice, in a book for each, the four being assembled in a case.

This physical explosion of the Yearbook questions the reader. It attempts to make him understand the issues of the four themes, without theorizing.In cloud computing spirit, links are suggested to the reader. They permit to compare issues, to go further in their understanding.Each book is also introduced by someone outside architecture, allowing to shift the debate, and to place it in a multidisciplinary context, unavoidable in architectural practice

Taïba has been a shanty town, for more than 60 years, in the centre of Dakar, inhabited by more than 2000 people. After 15 days of drawings and exchanges with people inside the slums, we were able to understand the sociological issues of a complete restructuring, and inhabitants fears about it.Preserve the neighbourhood identity and allow its inhabitants to keep their lifestyles are the premises for project. So the re-organisation begins by a rationalization of existants paths. Others, designed the orientation of winds come and disrupt them, allowing air circulation in the blocks. The final ground plan, strict, is defined by a set of rules, coming from ecological, sociological and economic issues.

Then, concessions themselves are designed to allow air circulation. The rounded shapes of the entries, beyond their symbolic role of threshold, pick the wind in the alley-ways and bring it inside the concession.For the same reason, a staggered is implemented in upper floors. Thus the wind is folded from top, where it is healthier, to bottom.A system of sheets metal scales, that inhabitants can assemble themselves, constitutes dwellings walls, and deal with intimacy and airing by their possible rotation.
The different projects ar exhibited in Dakar in Ja-nuary 2013, and the mayor of Dakar is currently thinking about their potential realisation.

The Est/West territory, from Orly to Valenton, is crossed by many flows from North to South, at a local or regional scale: the RER B and D, the line 7 of the tramway and the future prolongation of the subway 14. The only connexion between Est and West is the future TGV line which will end at Valenton.These observations lead to think about the creation of a new local transport line, linking the Est and West towns by going through the natural barrier of the Seine and the large empty spaces of the marshalling yard. The local scale of the project forces to think it as a tramway line. Its creation would be the opportunity to think a new masterplan along its 15 kilometers. Drawing on the C. De Portzamparc’s project for the future big rugby stadium, the redefines the neighbourhoods: densification, leisure centers, university campus... and is a pretext for a new local trade.

The program given here is a complex of two amphitheaters designed for music performances, and a swimming pool complex. The site is Porte de Bagnolet, in Paris, under the highway.Facing the site, totally saturated, we chose to do not suffer it, but to let the project play with these constraints.The highway becomes an object crossing the program without disturbing it. The building answers this flow in becoming a metropolitan gate.The swimming-pool/concert-hall complex created offers new sensitive, artistic and sporty expe-riences by the programs meeting in visual nodes, and sometimes even physical ones, which are the interaction places between the two programs.The different programs play with each other, a roof of one becoming the floor of an other, alternatively.

Starting from a reference of Steven Holl’s housing in Fukuoka, we adapt his system of living spaces appendixes and of continuous fonctionnal bar, to the project site. We take also his system of fa-çades openings, and we decide to close the most possible to the street, and to open the building on the interior of the complex.The 30 apartments (from T3 to T5) benefit thus of a real dynamics inside the building, and are protected from the street inconveniences: vision and noise. The ground floor is made to access the apartments and also offers services to inhabitants.(nursery, library..).

The subject of this competition (Arquitectum) was to imagine a wine museum on the uplands of Santiago, in Chili.The site being in a hollow of the relief, we decide to connect the two hill sides by a big vegetal wall. This wall offers only its vegetal façade to the town, and let its showrooms come out on the other side. The wall is simultaneously museum, crossing point, place to walk and belvedere to the town.The tower offers panoramas on the town, and acts as a signal for the town.

Tool box is a transportable dwelling, a micro architecture that we unfold and install anywhere.So its dimensions are very reduced: 7m² unfolded, and only 3m² when it is folded.To optimise space, we have thought a very modu-lar space, with a system of two semi-circles which contain the different parts of the furniture: one unit for bedroom and living room, and one for kitchen and sanitaries. The inhabitant rotates the unit he needs in the central part of the dwelling to enjoy it. Moreover, Tool box is autonomous in energy with its photovoltaic pannels, and collects rain water for the kitchen/sanitaries unit.

The studio «Little metropolis Nolli» is an introduc-tion to urban problematics. Our team received a theme: «metro-city», and a district of an imaginary town, in which intersect two aerial subways, one underground, and an SNCF train station.We worked on the separations between the town and its transports network. Our goal: break the visual and programmatic barriers between both, to link them in a fluider and richer urbanity, and thus more comfortable. To reach this goal, all the stratas communicate around a central diggind, in which all programs intermingle: offices, shopping, flows..

The aim of Reversed roles was to imagine the suppression of four houses and place there nine individual houses. Placed at the bottom of the plot, to the extrem north, the main difficulty was the framing of views and the arrival of light.So large openings and glazed faults are implemented on both houses. One house is a roommate designed for four students, with a double vertical circulation, interior and exterior. The second house is designed for a family of five persons. Its plan is inversed: at the R+2 are the living spaces, and bedrooms at the R+1. The ground floor is a space for bikes and garbages, for the ensemble of the nine houses.
