DEPEYRE MORAND ARCHITECTURES, Brigitte Bouillot · ENSEMBLE MEREVILLE

Brigitte Bouillot

The project consists of the construction for two ground floor commercial spaces and three first floor, social living spaces. The building is situated in the center of a small town in the French countryside.
The project began by analysing the surrounding rural context , the geometric forms drawn by the facade and the existing materials... This formal vocabulary gave us a constructive lexicon to design the building.
This village was historically identified as a pink village. House facade coatings were made from broken bricks mixed with plaster.
The building is built in prefabricated concrete panels tinted pink.
