MIGRANT WORKERS’ SOCIAL HOUSING IN PARIS / 131 UNITS

This socially-focused project demonstrates the ability of a typical parisian plot to be developed and transformed, even in a very restricted site.
After the demolition of the former building, the project consists of a new building's block broken up into 3 parts in order to provide 131 single studio units, all equipped.
This intentionally “couture” project encouraged us to reinterpret the classic architectural Paris style with a contemporary approach.
As a result, the plot is transformed on an intermediate and gentle scale, so that the social housing becomes a village, a living space and personal (re)construction for residents, all whilst making it an integral part of local life.
