Article source: METROPOLIS communication This project is the implementation of an urban strategy based on continuity with the existing built environment. The program is contained within two buildings: the first facing the street, with ground floor + 4 floors, containing seventeen apartments; the second, at the back of the lot, contains an additional eight. The first building opens to the rue Nicolo through façade detached from the ground and creating a passageway toward the center of the city block and to the vertical circulations.

The project is organized around this exterior circulation, which serves the entire program in a very direct and easy to understand way that recalls Parisian passageways. It also connects the built mases, the central garden and the interior courtyards in a layout that is regular and balanced in rhythm.

Each housing unit opens onto a garden with a specific character: golden foliage, shading foliage, white garden, etc. The ground floor and the façades on the courtyard have a mineral look and feel, clad in plaster of Paris or white concrete. The main façades are clad in brushed steel and organized in a regular composition.

On the central garden, the difference in levels leaves the impression that the floors are sliding against each other, echoing the composition of the garden.
