A dialogue between the heavy permanence of concrete and the transient nature of light. We treated the existing site not as a shell, but as a topography. The intervention began by carving into the massive landscape.
By introducing three central voids, we allowed vertical circulation of light, effectively turning the interior into an ever-shifting sundial.
“L'ancienne maison des jardins familiaux est le cœur du projet. En été, les vitrages sont relevés derrière l'avant-toit.”
