Blanquefort is a district in the North-West of Bor-deaux which takes part of the CUB (Communauté urbaine de Bordeaux).

Within the framework of the project «50 000 nou-veaux logement» (50 0000 new houses around the public transport axes), in combination with the project «Bordeaux Euratlantique» a new focal point is put on the conurbation and on the contri-bution to a new vision and position for Bordeaux in Europe.

A better connection is planned between the cen-ter of Bordeaux and Blanquefort, espacially with the new tram/train stop.

The south of the city, which is close to the «parc des Jalles» is one of the areas where new housing could be planned in the next few years. The «jalles» area is protected and deemed non-constructible. The southern edge of Blanquefort is directly rela-

Urban densification in Gradignan (33)An urban comb meeting a green grid

Gradignan is located in the south of Bordeaux. The project area is characterised by an old garden city wich has lost its identity over the last decades. The neighborhood has a strategic location since it’s situated on the crossroad between several districts of the town and many different urban typologies as well.There is a large green space in the center of the district which could federate the neigh-borhood whith the surrounding areas but which is unfortunately poorly invested. The request of the city was to add 300 more accomodations for different types of house-holds.

Our proposal was to connect the area with the rest of the city in a better way and to make the area attractive by improving the quality of the open public space which aimed to be more porous.

The main characteristics of our design are the progressive transition between the private and the public space, the interaction between a mineral and a vegetal grid, the balance between the number of individual and collective houses and provide appropriate urban ser-vices.

The project had several steps, by developping the de-sign in graduated scales.

After proposing a global masterplan, the intention was to design a typical part of the neighborhood in link with the park.

Here we see the progressive transition from the hou-sing space until the public park. The inhabitants cross a mineral area, go through the shared garden by small pedestrian paths, and can then appropriate clear inti-mate green spaces with a specific attention paid to the change of levels. This spaces are separate from the main public park by a setting of low dense vegetation, punctuated by several higher trees.

So the inhabitants are confronted by different garden scales ; the neighborhood scale (park), the street scale (private gardens) and the housing scale (balconies for example).

The last scale of intervention is a square in the North-East of the project area.The square marks the entrance into the town. Again we can see the highlighting of the layers of the topogra-phie, which give the main structure to the urban space.

The program requested to provide a place for a cultu-ral building according to the neighborhood. The dialogue between architectur and public open space is impor-tant. The building serves the design of the square, it guides and gives the main structure. The mineral square gives strength and highlights the buiding.

Vacant plots in Ensanche de Vallecas (Madrid)Experiment : Backbone

Ensanche de Vallecas is a district in the South-East of Madrid. The construction of an enormous quantity of housing, as well as infras-tructure and commercial areas, linked to investment and specu-lation between 2005 and 2010, caused a lot of empty flats and a poor and low invested urban public space.

The task was to look for a futural concept for the suburb of En-sanche de Valleca which strengthens its identity. A landscape ar-chitectural approach was needed which reframes the vacancy and informality of the waste land to a recreational area with a positive connotation.

The chosen area of intervention is located on an existing planned public space in which there is a important potential in terms of connections to already existing nodes and structures.

The aim of the project is to create a strategy for putting non-func-tional public space to productive and activ land.

Economic• Financial crisis: no money to finish project.• High maintenance design: large vulnerability.

How can we save / gain money?• Use vegetation fit for site:lower maintenance costs.• Use planting as investment:economic gain from harvest.

Social• Only 40 % of apartments in area occupied.• Large spatial and mental distance betweenNew Vallecas and other Madrid areas..

How can we make people meet?• Engage citizens: in spatial development,through events and information.• Provide space and spatial use thatencourage social interaction.

Spatial• Scale of public space overdimensioned.• No difference or hierachy regarding design orintended use.

How can we create public space thatinvites people to stay?• Reduce scale, provide space of differentsize and level of intimacy.• Allow change: create areas with flexible uses.

Proposed area of intervention : Vallecas Backbone Important connection points and space typologies in link with the surrounding buidings/areas

Solution on 3 levels

Identification of the problems

The acupuncture intervention is the first level of intervention. Dif-ferent experiments take place in several specifics locations, to make people aware of something that could happen in this area. The location and categorization of these temporary actions are based on our analy-sis of the area, proposing cer tain actions in combination to residential structures and others in close to the agricultural landscape or the com mercial centre. The actions are organized in three categories: Spatial action test : involving the inhabitants in the design of the area by providing movable furniture for example to analyse where people want to have the shadow or providing temporary urban farming with planting trays or mobable trees to involve people in a new activity. Connection emphasis : highlighting certain important linking points such as the road between the Villa and the Ensanche or the bridge over the motorway; Temporary experiences : introducing the inhabitants of Vallecas to the possible qualities of their neighborhood, such as the con nection to the landscape or the ecological functions of a certain place.

These different actions are planned to take place in a varying time-frame. Some of the temporary actions are operating for a few weeks, others for half a year. Based on the response of the inhabitants from the area and from local companies or organisations, like the PAU for example, decisions are made on how to develop this action further. These evaluations will have to be done through interviews, observations and events with key persons collecting information and analysing its content.This process is not an ending system especially because of the uncer-tain future of the area.

Assuming that some of this acupunctural actions might work, we developed a design pro-posal in which we differentiate the permanent structure from a more flexible structure. The basic permanent design, gives hierarchie in the spatial situation and gives different levels of intimity at the open public space.

The permanent structure are the pedestrian paths, the trees planted and the framework of the community gardens and ecological intervention areas. This permanent framework for the plots can be appropriated variously, based on the interest and the economic situa-tion.The flexible elements are the actual size and quantity of the gardens, the production fields and the ecological innovation plots.

The intention of this design is to work in symbiosis with the temporary interventions. The strategy does not work only one way but is to be understood as a cycle of interventions, design actions, permanent solutions and dynamic and creative maintenance.

The natural risk factors as project motor«La pointe du Médoc» (33)

«La pointe du Médoc», is an area located in between two waters. The Atlantic ocean and the estuary of the Gironde. This territory is fragile because of the many risks that it has to face. The withdrawel of the coastline in the west and the risk of flooding in the east are the most impor-tant of them.

The touristic pressure is more and more influan-cing the landscape organisation.

In a first time, the aim of the project is to conso-lidate the connection between East and west by using the already existing crossing corridors.

By using the risk factor, the project wants to de-velop the local economy by providing a new type of tourism in link with new naturel areas. So the proposal combines the management of waterflood on the east coast, with new types of accommodation for tourists.Three intervention areas has been selected, each one in link with the other.- Propose a new habitat in a flood area on t h e estuarine coast.- Depolderise a part of the estuarine coast for a new natural system- Develop an old harbor to make it more attrac-tive.

The project area concerns the downstream parts of the valleys from the Dordogne (from Bergerac to the Bec d’Ambès) and from the Isle (from Coutras to the confluence with the Dordogne in Libourne).

The request is from EPIDOR (établissement public territorial du bassin de la Dordogne) a public institution which is in charge of the running of the public waterways. The state provides the transfer of the running public waterways from the Dordogne, the Isle and the Vézère to the local authorities.

the project has a double aim ; - Provide a complete landscape analysis on which will be based the future new running actions. Change the look that people can have on the waterways, and change their behaviour in link with these spaces.- Help the local actors to put the riparian landscape in the centre of their territorial projects.

The global issue concerns the reflection about the implementation of new territorial policies reviving the river by taking in considaration the social practices which explain the evolution of the river landscapes and the symbolic values according to it over the last few decades.

The intervention area is located on the confluence between two rivers ; The Dordogne and The Isle, it is a floodable land. Nowadays, the territory has no link with the river anymore while a few decades ago, this relationship was very important (agricultural irrigation, different flows, ...)The aim of the project is to work on the dialogues between the territory and the river and to develop them again.- Dialogue between the wetlands and the river- Dialogue between the gravel beds and the river- Dialogue between the river and its history

These different interfaces are used and put together to create a suburban agricultural park on the confluence. The aim is to develop and take advantage of the agronomic potential and tourism which exceeds the admistratives limits and would establish consistency on a territorial level.

>Bachelor thesis : Landscape analysis in the East of the Pyrenees

The chosen area for my bachelor thesis is located in the Eastern Pyre-nees. A small valley called «vallée des Garrotxes». The aim of the study of this area was to understand the actual landscape by analysing the landscape and its evolution over the last 100 years. This analysis provi-ded subsequently issue prospects for the future of the area.

The riverbanks of Cahors : the dialogues between the river and the city

During the two months of internship at the CAUE (Conseil d’architec-ture d’urbanisme et de l’environnement) of the Lot (46), the aim was to analyze the riverbanks of the city of Cahors. This study aimed to help the city to specify the request for the future design and organisation of these banks.This task, proposed by the CAUE, is part of a contempory dynamic which is popular in many big cities : the return of urban space toward their river.

Reinvesting an already existing frame

The «Cité Frugès», in Pessac (33) from Le Corbusier.

A social heterogenity explains a two-tier neighborhood.

Ruined houses alongside restored houses.

A dilapidated «skyscraper house» is reinvested. The frame is kept in its current state, so the identity is conserved. The program is designed for artists. Autonomous volumes fit in the house with less impact as possible on the existing house.

An enveloping and penetrating outer structur supports the public and the private circulations.The architecture becomes inhabited and visited.

A new face is given to the house and new points of view are provided on the whole neighborhood.

Model experimentation

Used materials : wax, balsa wood and wooden sticks

Historical monument analysis

Historical and structural analysis of the church «Notre Dame de Raincy», located near Paris in the department of Seine-Saint-Denis. The modern church was build in 1922-23 by the architects Auguste and Gustave Perret. The building is considered as an emblematic monument of the modern architecture and is the first church build in reinforced concrete in France. As such it has been classified as national historical monument.

Materials used for the model : Cardboard, pained plexiglass and wooden sticks
