The event, launched by President Emmanuel Macron was the culmination of an 11 month long competitive process in which 30 teams developed proposals for 10 neighbourhoods across France with a view to transforming them in a socially and environmentally sustainable way through strategies of retention, rehabilitation and the circular construction economy.
Working in collaboration with HBAAT↗, we developed proposals for the Langevin apartment building in Caen that sought to value the 21st century heritage of the original 1957 architecture whilst bringing a contemporary understanding of community and social cohesion together with privacy and amenity to give the building a renewed relevance in the city.
