This transition centre has 19 apartments, from one room flats to two rooms flats, 4 independent emergency rooms, and one company accommodation for a social worker. If the first vocation of a transition centre is to support and to reintegrate weakened and isolated persons, to return in a social life, the environmental anchorage point of the building also participates in this function by articulating the social and environmental actions.
