TOA. Housing, sports hall and community gardens. Paris. France
September 03, 2012
The operation initially concentrated housing and a municipal sports centre in a compact volume, to which, thanks to the determination of the architects and the councillor in charge of the programme, a roof garden open to the public was added.
The volume complies with the morphology of the setting and the facades of the dwellings take on the identity of the neighbourhood. The outdoor walkways favour the social relations between neighbours. The access areas to the residential volume inside the block respect the tradition of the Parisian pedestrian passageways, through a controlled semi-public access space leading to the outdoor corridors giving access to the dwellings, the sports centre and the stairs up to the roof garden.
