The project «Toi mon Toit» is established in the district of the Grand Parc, on the communal subdivision of Vèzes in Bordeaux and takes the form of houses on stilts of two or three levels. This «stall on stilts» offers a certain flexibility of volumes and spaces to answer to the needs and the desires of each one. The floodplain becomes the place of meeting and sharing between neighbors while the «wooden stall» welcomes the living spaces of the family. This quest for proximity to nature, of closeness to people, of flexible housing is imagined to meet the expectations of individuals in search of the living environment of Bordeaux.
