Architectural Concept: To revitalize the Latin Quarter, we have adopted a multi-layered, multi-scaled approach that balances the significance and spirit of the place, the history of the cradle of the French intelligentsia and American culture, urban design, and public and private functions.
"The significance of the place is rooted in the collective memory of the past and the traces that remain there. "
Key Concepts
An active population from the cultural, social, artistic, literary, political, and creative spheres is emerging. The transient influx makes it a hub for exchange with tourists participating in various festivals. We have created event-driven and interactive routes composed of urban equipment and furniture that serve as guides and adaptable containers for functions with variable geometry. These families of street furniture will structure and support the educational and multimedia materials.
"Our approach is defined by the staging of an experiential route that serves as the guiding thread of this urban exploration."
