Ce projet explore le rapport troit entre la forme, lusage et la solution constructive.

Une trame permet de maitriser les contraintes structurelle de faon servir la qualit despace. Les murs de briques massifs accentuent leffet de lgret de la couverture en structure caisson, surleve grce de petits lments mtalliques ponctuels.

La halle et la place sont amnages de faon suivre la course du soleil au cours de la journe: march le matin lEst, terrasse du bar protge du soleil en milieu de journe et place publique lOuest.

PAlAdru, 2009ENSA GrENoblE - licENcE 2

Le projet est rvlateur des potentialits architecturales du lieu. Lobjectif ici est donc de se confronter un site rel afin den saisir les enjeux.

La parcelle en pente est ramnage en trois plateaux, sparant les fonctions.

Au premier niveau, lalignement marque la transition entre la ville et lespace amnag. Il annonce le rapport au cadrage du paysage lacustre.

Sur le reste de la pente, le bati est intgr au terrain et les toits deviennent accessibles. La vue sur le lac est ainsi libre pour les espaces intrieurs et exterieurs.

Ce projet sinscrit dans un contexte particulirement enclav: le quartier des grands ensembles situs louest dEchirolles est spar du centre ville par une zone industrielle, une voie de chemin de fer et le cours Jean Jaurs analys pralablement.

Au RDC, un ple multimodal permet de crer de nouveaux liens entre ce quartiers et les centres daglomrations (Grenoble, Echirolles), mais aussi de proposer des alternatives durables au transport automobile individuel (vlo, transports en commun) afin de rduire son impact sur lenvironnement et sur le bien tre des habitants.

Aux tages, des logements collectifs participent la densification urbaine tout en favorisant la mixit et le lien social, favoris par la mutualisation de certains espaces.

ple multimodal Rflexions diffrentes chelles sur un espace urbain enclav : rorganisation des modes de transport, mixit programmatique et typologies de logement innovantes.

moNTrEAl, 2010mcGill uNivErSiTy - mASTEr 1

panoGrapHFirst step of experimentations about the exteriors perception of the project.

This proposal is ruled by a strong interrelation between structure form, plans organization, openings and exterior skin.

From the exterior, the building seems to be an enclosed. The luminous skin makes the link between the interior activity, and the exterior perception.

The tilt allows a maximum illumination from the large openings of the roof, and also reinforces the idea of an ancient artifact, buried in the ground since a long time. The offset frees two large spaces : a public place for Cultural Center activities and a park that increases natural environment and privacy.

The Cultural Center spaces are located on the ground floor, and the library on the first floor, on a large open floor plan area. The central reception area allows access to all the public spaces.

Association of a simple black box and of a luminous surrounding skin that shares some informations, like text and pictures, with the public space.

Earth Curvature, A Global, Local Rest Area

Desert Drops is discreet and surprising, without imposing itself to landscape but inviting to discovering it in a new light.

Its a contextual architecture, miming the formal rules of the place.

It also proposes a new poetic experiment of the desert, between infinity of earth and sky.

The Voronoi diagram mimics the patterns of the salt cracks.

The original grid represents the flatness of the desert.

The random placement of the central point and rotation creates the oddness of the shapes.

The same pattern in a circle is used for the coverage.

The intersections of the pattern form the supporting structure.

The pattern creates shapes of ETFE modules. ETFE modules are inflated in order

to create a thermally efficient skin.

The hollowness of the structure provides air insufflation for ETFE modules.

The soil lowering, according to shapes based on voronoi diagram, establishes the living space.

The contrast between materials increases the sensation of sinking into the desert ground.

The morphology is determinated by observation and mimicry of organic geometry of salt cracks.A computational process allows to create an infinity of formal answers.It becomes the way to introduce the natural notion of indeterminism into the creation process.Then, the choice of one of them is used for one living space, as a formal guideline for the whole design process.

Vtuste et peu lumineux, le centre ville historique dAmbert est dlaiss malgr un patrimoine bti indniable. Les objectifs de notre proposition visent re-dynamiser ce coeur de ville en adaptant ce patrimoine existant aux besoins et aux modes vie contemporains.

Guid par un principe dacupuncture urbaine, notre projet se compose de rhabilitations ponctuelles sur des parcelles dont le potentiel permet daccueillir divers programmes en lien avec les besoins de la commune. Chaque intervention est dveloppe partir de concepts communs : respect de lidentit du lieu dimplantation, rduction des cots, optimisation thermique des espaces habitables, partage de certains espaces et amnagements et libert dappropriation.

2. vider ldifice et conserver lenveloppe existante afin de respecter lidentit du lieu

3. Rduire lespace chauff en extriori-sant les espaces collectifs

4. Centraliser les flux pour permettreune diminution des cots et une plus grande libert dappropriation

The Upside Down prototype is a piece of furniture thats aesthetic and various functions are the result of computer-based morphological operations.

The final object produced exemplifies the precision and free form vocabulary attainable with digital production tools.

2. Functions

Using two sides facilitates integration of more functions by flipping the object.The first side is carved in order to fit the human morphology.It can be used as a lounge chair.The second side is designed as two seats and a flat partwhich can be used as a third seat or a table.

1. Double-sided

81 x 45 cm is the maximum size of MDF panels that we can use for the laser cutter machine.In order to make two cuts per board and provide a little margin in anticipation of the final shape,all the cuts had to fit in a square of 40 cm x 40 cm.Putting two shapes per board optimizes the number of cuts,reduces the amount of waste and lowers overall production costs.180 cm (72) is the longest available length for threaded rods,and is also the average height of a human being.

3. Comfort

By precisely displacing the control points of the surfaces in the 3D model, the degree of comfort for each function is improved.The edge curvatures are also considered carefully, in prevision of the blending of both surfaces so that the final shape is as smoothe and fluid as possible.

4. Solid

The final shape is produced by blending both top and bottom surfaces.The smaller end is rounded off, tangentially to the final polysurface.The bigger end is flattened vertically in order to allow a second module to align with the first,which would create a complete monolith.

5. Sections

Each board was cut from 6mm MDF.6mm of void is added between each panel.It allows a better visual effect and saves material.153 vertical sections are cut from the final polysurfacewith 1,2 cm between each of them.

6. Final prototype

For a last material saving : 34 of the smaller shapes are cutted in the bigger ones.The whole object is fixed by two treaded rods.Each void is produced by a 6 mm MDF spacer.Each end is pasted for a better aesthetic.

Parameter X.

Distribution of a serie of sphere with varying radius. The radius being

defined by a linear function in relation to the distance of the first sphere. Each sphere appearing when the lenght of

the initial curve is repeated.

Parameter Y.

Curvature evolution achievable by evaluating those curves in relation to

each other, with each the same division and changing the from 0 to 1
