The project that RATP has entrusted to us consists of the realization of 2 housing buildings imbricated with a bus center.
In a specific and referenced work based on emblematic Parisian operations such as the building of the Atlas passage designed by Eugène Beaudoin and Marcel Lods or the one by Henri Sauvage located rue Vavin, the first building of our operation, implanted rue du Père Corentin, presents a stepped facade combined with terraces to solve the wide gap existing between the buildings that surround it : a R+2 Mansart-type pavilion and a R+12 building resulting from the modernity implanted freely in disregard of any alignment. This work of graduation also emanates from a desire to open this very narrow street to the sun, to the sky, and to desaturate the noise of the street by avoiding the bottleneck of 2 facades strictly in vis-a-vis. Thus, every dwelling offers a possibility to plant on the entirety of the linear of its facade and contributes to the realization of a future suspended oblique garden in the perspective of the street.
Plaxil 8 is an industrial building housing a fully automated MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) manufacturing line. The line consists of a fiber sorting and mat formation section, a continuous hot press section and an unloading and stacking section.
This plant replaces the previous Plaxil 4 and Plaxil 5 press lines, retaining however their existing defibrators and warehouses.
The building covers an area of about 8500 square metres within the Osoppo production site of the Fantoni group. It is situated among other buildings north of the Plaxil 5 “Cathedral” building, originally designed by Gino Valle in 1985.
The building is 300 m long and 28 m wide. Its west side is over 50 m high, while the rest of the structure has an average height of 14.50 m. It is the largest press in Europe and the second largest in the World for the production of MDF boards, which are used for the manufacture of furniture, doors, interior panelling and soundabsorbing materials.
At Mindet 6, close to the Port of Aarhus, a bright, sculptural tower and landmark will combine city life and cultural history with attractive new cultural and business facilities, together with public restaurants.
The starting point for the tower is an existing historical industrial complex, with its legacy of the port’s industry and culture in former times. The impressive building structure will be preserved and supplemented with a new tower. The tower will be integrated into the existing complex, from which its basic geometry will be derived. The historical qualities of the existing building will continue to be apparent, and will also gain new life from being opened up towards the surroundings, to create attractive outdoor and indoor relations. On the roof of the old building, a new, publicly-accessible green rooftop garden environment will be established, and will include a restaurant, orangery and kitchen gardens.

A group of like-minded professionals who want to work flexibly in an inspiring environment, and who can do it anywhere. Tribes will provide in the needs of this tribe and will function as a home base.

Situated in a low-lying field adjacent to both a lake and a quiet lagoon, Residence 1446 was the final element of a ten-year master plan that includes a guest house, pedestrian bridge, pool, and boathouse. Arranged around a central courtyard and characterized by its distinctive, copper-clad roof profiles, this onelevel home is defined by a horizontality that responds quietly and sensitively to its serene wetland surroundings.
The Pier House is perched on a hillside overlooking the Potomac River in southern Maryland. The 130 foot long house is conceived as a pier with seamless transitions between interior and exterior living areas. Elongated decks and walkways offer a variety of panoramic and framed views of the water and landscape beyond. From the street side the house presents itself as a solid volume in contrast to the transparent double height living space facing the river. The recessed lower level and the exposed steel frames over the deck, allow the house to appear to float over the landscape.
Casa Mia was born from the union of two separate apartments of a family with a child and waiting for the second, therefore the study of spaces and connections has been done paying serious attention to the child’s dimension. The two levels were connected by a resin and steel staircase that from the separation hallway between the living area and the sleeping area leads to the second level, where the master bedroom was placed with a reserved bathroom and two walk-in closets. A gap was opened in the wall between the staircase and the living room in order to allow the visibility between the two spaces, becoming a place of discovery but also of control. The staircase was thought up with the first two steps detached and movable, in order to give the opportunity to the parents to monitor their children’s access to the stairs. Two whiteboard walls, place of creative drawing, were positioned in the filter area between the kitchen and the living room and on an entire wall in the children’s bedroom.
The Atelier Zündel Cristea just delivered the “Hôtel d’entreprises Binet” in the 18th arrondissement of Paris. Located in an area rapidly regenerating economically and socially, this project was created to provide technical support to young companies in the process of maturing, with open space floors for co-working and floors designed for a range of uses.
The project included interior design of a 100 year old house after its expansion and modernization. In addition, it required designing a fireplace and a staircase connecting the three levels. Most of the furniture (dining table, bureau, coffee table, sideboard, kitchen cabinets, bathroom cabinets) were designed and built by Loft Szczecin. Furniture were made of oak and were later oiled. Kitchen furniture were created from laminated plywood and the countertop is made of black granite. Vintage items were bought in auctions and have been restored by Loft Szczecin. These include the chairs designed by Niels Moller of danish production, the armchair of czech production from the 60s designed by Magda Sepova and small medical furniture from the early 20th century.
