The architects profession is an adventurous one, a job on the frontier. The architect walks a knife-edge between art and science, between originality and memory, between the daring of modernity and the caution of tradition.

URBANISM

Global Networks supporting local interestsReconnecting Belfast - The lightning walkway

What is a changing city ? What is Belfast ? And why is Belfast a changing city ?

The capital of Northern Ireland was the nucleus of the studio in which I took part for my Master Thesis pro-ject. By groups of 4 students we began to explore the city through different topics. In my group we focused our work on the topic of Transports. From this ana-lysis we had to go ahead with challenges we would have found on regard to the transport approach and choose a site which would represent an opportunity area to resolve the problems pointed out. Then we had to develop both social, urban and architectural strategies in order to transform the site responding to a chosen problematic.

Belfast is situated on the North-East Coast of the Island of Ireland and was built around the estuary of the river Lagan, in between hills. Its a city mainly based on its maritime activity and linen industry which expansions occurred during the 18th and 19th centuries. Place of birth of the Titanic and used as a home base by the Royal Navy during World War II, it is today an injured city divided by a serious civil war and which is now hardly facing the economic crisis. Despite this com-plicated context, it is still a major maritime hub, the administrative capital and the largest city of Northern Ireland.

URBANISM

Urban Utopias mutationsHow to put the history in perspective

The comparison between some paper achitectures of the 60s & 70s and some more contemporary pro-jects permits to point out a certain similarity, whiteness of the past ideas and productions influence upon contemporary architecture. What did those utopias become ? Is it possible that there are no utopias any more ? Can Architecture only exist without utopias ?

If we consider that utopias represent the main motor of the cities evolution and if we observe how quickly the cities are transforming themselves nowadays, it seems obvious that utopias have not disappeared. They just seem to evolve under different forms. If the utopian dimension of the urban project is not as ob-vious as it was before, how do those new utopias appear today ?

22

The three main ideologies of the 20th century studied are Progressism, Culturalism and Naturalism.

- The first one is aimed to free the human race from its imper-fections and servitudes linked to the industrial city. Hygienists, rationalists or hu-manists are derived models following the same principles. In other words, this ideology aims to improve human life and his well-being through science.

- Culturalism was born from the disappearance of the for-mer organic city-state under the destroying pressure of industrialisation. It was mainly characterized by modest city projects, contrasting with the nature kept wild and following an organic order (irregularity, asymmetry...). Collective life based on democracy was de-veloped in a very specific ar-chitecture composed of com-munity buildings re-introducing art in their compositions.

Culture and tradition are very important values in this anti-industrial ideology. In compa-rison with Progressism, Cultu-ralism tries globally to respond to spiritual needs more than material ones.

The utopia is mainly urban because the city expresses the reign of men. The control of urbanism is throught and since centuries, the key to the utopian project, a main tool for the organization and concep-tion of the city and living envi-ronment of men.

But as arts or sciences, the science of urbanism evolves step by step, following ideolo-gical flows influenced by histo-ric contexts in constant evolu-tion. It emerges from criticism, reassessment of established principles, and leads to new experiences, criticized again... This repetitive and empirical process never ends to one single conclusion and goes on with constant re evaluations, main characteristic of a disci-pline inseparable from its his-torical context.

The process of this thesis consisted in analysing in a chronological and ideologi-cal way, the famous urban utopias of the 20th century pointing out their origins, their foundations and their limits in order to understand better the relations between each other. This approach does not per-mit to answer explicitly to the questions what will be the city of tomorrow like but it should permit to find leads of reflexion and answers around this sub-ject.

RESEARCH THESIS /// Urban Utopias mutations

Historic review of the main urban ideologies

of the 20th century

- Finally, Naturalism was born from the american anti-urban ideology which was willing to come back to a rural state of the society, defending the image of a wild and virgin nature as well as considering that it would be the only way to guarantee freedom, blossoming and real sociability between men.

Too utopian to make urban projects possible, this ideology gives way to Naturalism which tends to defend specific ideological principles : It goes against alienation of men by the industrial city, it advocates contact with nature to permit an harmonious development of people and consider democracy as an ideal state of the society. In a word, it encourages an individualistic and depoliticized society.

THEO

RIES

The main issue of this work remains in the definition of urban utopias and in their inscription in a global scheme of evolution.

Those contemporary utopias seem to have evolved through new patterns and process more complex and less obvious than the icons of the urban utopias of the 20th century presented above, and thats where is all the interest of the subject.

Two main branches can be distinguished nowadays : The ecological utopias and the technologic ones. Even if Culturalism is still existing through communities or groups of people, this ideology is now more considered as a fringe of the society.

All in all, it seems like the big challenge of the contemporary metropolitans stands in the association of the two main utopias mentioned before : a metropolis cant pretend to exist only through its ecological or technological form today.

With the evolution of the society, those utopias come under challenges more complex because responding to larger scales : from the huge challenge (global issue of sustainability) to the very small one (micro-intervention on daily life, technology of the internet...).

Nevertheless, if the contemporary utopian projects try to respect and integrate all the principles of the actual issues of our cities, the architects of utopias have never really got down with the problem of inequality between men, whereas most of those inequalities are concerning their life conditions.

So many projects are developed to transform Paris in a connected metropolis, to turn New York into a Green city or to create an energy efficient and low polluting city in the middle of the desert but what is done or drawn for ghettos and the third world ?

The Torre David in Caracas is a beautiful example of what is possible to do in the south hemisphere adapting ourselves to different situations and populations, but it is still an exception in front of all the mediatic flows focusing on utopian projects developed in the northern hemisphere...

Are the utopias reserved to an elite ? Will the third world have access one day, to the dream of a better city, better life ? (slogan of the universal exhibition of Shanghai in 2010.

URBANISM

From Misery to ChevirUrban recovery of the industrial areas of the city

We are here working on an individual urban project dealing with a vast territory stretching over the wes-tern limit of Nantes (Quarry of Misry) to the huge Che-vir bridge, last river-crossing before the estuary of the Loire, in Saint-Nazaire.

It is a territory mainly industrial and even if some firms remain active in this area, the first feeling is an impres-sion of deserted ground, almost abandoned. This fee-ling is mainly due to the difficulty for pedestrians and bikes, to access the site and walk around it. The little town centre of Chantenay or the train station seem like the only places where a pedestrian could be wel-comed, and this is the starting point of this urban reco-very.

The idea is to set up a new harbour in the place of the former Crucys docks, almost forgotten, and to create a new core connecting the existing town centre, to the train station and to the future harbour. This har-bour will attract a new population and will permit to extend the town centre to the river : the idea is now to develop new connections over the river and close to it... so that in the end, Chantenays inhabitants will be able to reach the docks again and enjoy a promenade all along the river. New ground connections (public transports, public places) will also be set up so that the territory becomes more reachable and pleasant.

Urban project


The urban strategy is based on 4 ideas born from the analysis :

-The existing plot is almost mono-oriented (East-West) so the project tries to draw new links and axis to transform the territory into a bi-directional mesh/network-The scale of the existing blocks and building is huge so the idea is to create a smaller plot thanks to back alleys and pedestrian street dividing the blocks.

Masterplan of the urban project

- The current territory is characterised by its violence and speed, so the idea is to bring back a human scale, separating flows and users.- This area is fragmented and badly connected : the project will provide new hubs and public places between the different spaces and transport areas.

URBANISM

Amsterdam WittenburgA green way acting as a link through the urban territory

Amsterdam is a city where the water is omnipresent, espe-cially in the northern part of the city where it reaches the sea through the Noordzeekanaal. We are working on this part of the city, in the borough of Wittenburg, quite wealthy, organised around its canals and composed of some impor-tant cultural buildings such as the Nemo Science centre.

The project developed in this area appears like an urban recovery. Composed of various peninsula and canals, the current area isnt really easily crossed nor connected in terms of public transport. It drives it as a quite isolated terri-tory even if it is close to the city centre in terms of distance.

Therefore, the idea of the project is to think a new urban logic in this area, a way to understand the territory not as a set of peninsula and canals but as a unique urban com-position resolving the issues of connection and attracti-vity. Thus, a green way is developed across the borough welcoming a new tramway line (connected to the existing one) in order to fill the lack of public transport and public green spaces inside the area.

Along this green line, the urban fabric is transformed or adapted : the ground floors are reserved for shops now open on public places and parks. In the northeast of the area, the existing buildings are quite low and not making really advantage of their situation. They are replaced by a new urban fabric acting as a transition between the public space of the green line and the private space of the se-mi-collective houses. A kind of peripheric road allows the access of those private areas, keeping the centre car-free.

ANALISISAmsterdam

En el primer plano, se puede ver la reparticion actual de los edifi-cios sobre el area de trabajo, las diferentes actividades del territo-rio (viviendas, industrias, comer-cios) y los diferentes espacios pu-blicos de la zona, es decir las plazas, los parques y otros espa-cios verdes.

En el plano aqui abajo, se puede ver las diferentes alturas del area de trabajo. Los edificios mas altos se situan en mayoria al sur este del terreno, los mas bajos al norte oeste donde la densidad de edifi-cios es menos importantes. Las seccionessecciones vuelven a mostrar como las alturas y la densidad de los edificios juegan con los vacios de los canales. Dan una idea de la silueta de Amsterdam en este barrio de la ciudad.

Por fin, el ultimo plano muestra como el area esta cubierta por el servicio del transportes publi-cos, y por las carreteras de auto-moviles comunicandolo con el resto de la ciudad. Se puede in-dentificar rapidamente la orientacion principal de estas vias: del norte al sur, lo que nos hizo pensar en un proyecto en el que el trazado de las calzadas podria reunir las diferentes ca-si-islas introduciendo vias per-pendiculares a las que ya existen...

LEYENDA

Edificios, planta baja

Asi, el proyecto se presenta como una reabilitacion de lo existente en la mayoria del teritorio, y en una nueva composicion urbana en la parte al norte-oeste del area. La unidad del proyecto consiste en el paseo peatonal cruzando todos los islotes desde el este hasthasta el oeste y sobre cual se conecta el resto del viario seguiendo un jerarquia funcional.

La otra idea principal del proyecto desarollada aqui es las composicion de la parcelacion del area : la relacion entre el espacio publico y el espacio libre privado, y la relacion entre las plantas bajas y el suelo publico.

EstaEstas plantas bajas son principalmente destinadas a un uso publico. Asi, la avenida verde no es el unico punto de atraccion con sus plazas y jardines, sino que en las puntas de los islotes se colocan tambien equipamientos o lugares publicos para atraer la gente hasthasta alqui.

Se puede ver diferentes equipamientos coloca-dos de manera equilibrada en el area favore-ciendo la mezcla de usos.

Ante todo, la avenida verde es iregular y crea al-gunas veces plazas minerales y otras, zonas verdes. Asi, la avenida alterna entre zonas de paso y zonas de descanso a los cuales se aaden otros espacio publico libres para llevar air y vegetacion en el tejido urbano.

Luego, algunos equipamientos de tipo cultural se plantean a la extremidad de cada islote para darles un caracter atractivo.Por fin, la escuela remodelada (el edificio era an-tiguamente una industria) esta directamente co-nectada al tranvia, dado cuenta de su capaci-dad de atraccion.

El concepto fuerte del proyecto urbano es el paseo verde cruzando toda el area y integrandose al tejido urbano gracias a las conecciones del v iario existente con el. La idea era de colocar equipa-mientos urbanos para que este espacio peatonal vuelve atractivo y agradable.

Alternando entre plaza minerales y zonas verdes, algunas instalaciones ur-banas puntuan el paseo :

Bancos de estilo contemporaneo de co-lores v ivos para identificarse bien en el paisaje, basuras con un diseo especi-fico para distinguirse, paradas de tran-via con tema de materiales cambiando en cada una, jardines con instalaciones originales ..todo asi hecho seguiendo una idea de identificacion, de un conjunto atractivo y original.

Crossroads winery A steel skin over the dry ground

This studio of the Polytechnic University of Valencia was offering us to study the little town of Requena, 50 km away from Valencia towards Madrid. After working on a wine cel-lar restoration in the town centre, which permitted us to discover the village, its history and its atmosphere, we were brought to a more specific area, in the country side at just a few kilometers from the town centre on a country lane. In the middle of a vineyard in a quite beautiful landscape, a ruin and an hermitage were standing, separated by a pathway. Motionless as if they were guardians of this territory, and looking down on the river, those two elements brought inspiration and respect to the place.

The program consisted in a bodega (winery), including all the stages of wine production, from the grape-harvest to the wine tasting and selling.

The first act was to decide where to set up the project in this territory. I decided to implant it on the crossroads drawn by the pathway coming from Requena (and fol-lowing toward other lands and vineyards) and the little path going down to the river, more or less perpendicular to the first one. Three buildings emerged like that, enabling the separation of the three stages of wine production : the harvest treatment, grinding of the grape and fermentation - the filtration and ageing of the wine - the bottling, tasting and selling of the wine. All those stages were then divided again in blocks of buildings, inspired by the drawing created on the ground by the drought particularly rough in this area.

ARCHITECTURE

From the town centre to the river bank Art recovery over left aside territories

The hillock of Saint Anne is a very particular area : its situation in the city of Nantes (along the river, in front of the island), its museum of Jules Verne, its planetarium and its relief and deep materiality make it one of the very special natural sight seen spot of the city.

The cliff rises proudly in front of the river, even if it is constrai-ned between two roads and its scars are like marks of its glorious past : The historical background of the area, mainly industrial, is deeply linked to the shipyard before their closure : this link was physical (transborder bridge) and mental (the inhabitants of this neighborough were mainly working class families living thanks to the shipbuilding industry). The area seem to feel some kind of regrets in regard to those times : the stairs of sainte Anne were the theatre of some many events which seem to be gone with the shipyard.The physical heritage of the area, marked by a former geo-logical activity, has turned the site in a very uneven ground where both mineral and vegetable try to express themselves taking advantage of the views.

The program of the project taking place in this area was stan-ding in an exhibition hall, houses for artists and a restaurant in order to re-activate the dynamism and the cultural activity of this former town centre. The project developed is using the concept of stairs and promenade in order to resolve the topography issue and to make advantage of the views and panoramas over the city.The imposing urban stairs become the core of the project acting like an amphitheatre and connecting the different parts of the program.

OBadia - (sarabe)Utopian oasis in the desert of Jordania

In a team of 3 students and during 4 months, the main goal of this exercise was to find an extreme situa-tion (in terms of climate, geography, or geopolitics...) in a country or a region of the world and to design an architectural utopian answer to the issues raised.

Stuck between the geopolitics tensions related to the water issue in the Middle East, and suffering tempera-tures that can rise till 102 Fahrenheit, Jordania emerges as one of the most vulnerable countries in to drought.

Located above an untapped source of water, OBa-dia as an old caravanserai, emerges in the desert as a welcoming place for travellers as well as a meeting place and investigation centre directly linked to the water issues in Middle-East.

It appears as a mirage under the oppressive heat of the desert and hide an underground oasis providing fresh air and water deep down. In surface, it only sug-gests its presence through an horizontal layer care-fully drilled in order to simulate a snake skin.

Under that skin, the project is like the Aladdins cave, full of the Arabian nights spirit where the walls stretched between the ground and the roof (desert ground) are organising the space composed of platforms and voids.

FHY Architecture & UrbanismOne foot into architectures reality

The masters degree internship is a very important step in the uni-versity education : it allows the students, used to fictional projects, to experiment the reality and the daily life of an architect. I did my internship in Paris, looking carefully for an agency developing both architectural and urban projects in its practice.

I also decided to extend the duration (2 months full-time or 4 months part-time mandatory) to 5 months full-time to really make advantage of this experience. During those 5 months, I had the opportunity to work on various projects :

- First, on a DCE (consultation file for supply contracts) during 4 months. I worked on details of entrance halls and shared spaces of the collective housing project of Reims Wilson. It enabled me to learn a lot about norms and technical drawing as well as working with other members of the team (engineer, materials companies, real estate company...).

-Then, I worked on an Urban Development Zone during 3 months. I participated to every meeting with the councillor, engineers, ex-perts and inhabitants in Bruz (municipality in the south of Rennes). I drew plans, sections, diagrams and looked for references. It was a very enriching experience and I felt really enthusiastic about this inter-disciplinarity that builds the project.

-Finally, I had the opportunity to work on two urban projects for a few weeks : Arc Nord Est of Reims, an urban development zone for which I mainly worked on the model and the urban plan. And Lausanne-Malley, a redevelopment of a strategic borough of the swiss city. For this project, I worked on diagrams for circulations and public spaces as well as feasibility studies of a block in terms of height and volumetry, in regards to an urban rule, created by the agency.

From the first plans to the first stone

This project was my first own project as an architect. We met this french family looking for an architect in Barcelona and we proposed our services for their house extension.

We went to see the house and we measured up all the existing walls and floors so that we would be able to draw the existing plans of the house (they didnt have any reliable documents). Then we began to sketch a project, trying to follow their will and our conscience of architects : They asked us a roof terrace (without any access on the roof but flat) but designing such a parallelepiped volume on an existing one, we realized it was more similar to a container than to a nice bedroom. At the same time, they asked us a huge bay window to get as much light as possible but it see-med quite strange for us to put a bay window with great dimensions in front of a matrimonial bed and bathroom (they wanted the bathroom open on the bedroom).

So we worked on a compromise : we developed the extension in regard to the villa facade more than the parallelepiped block down, the roof was now following the same double slope as the main facade roof and this new volume permits to set up huge windows in the angle so that they are high enough to guarantee a minimum of intimacy for the couple. They loved it and we are current-ly drawing technical plans & section and choosing with them all the interior and exterior materials

A Library 2.0 in Copenhagen

What is a Library 2.0 ? The first definition was thus : a Library 2.0 should be defined as a digital repository of information and at the same time as a place for people to meet and share. We chose to work with this concept of digital repository but without forgetting its physical aspect (books) acting like a base for any library and defending the idea that we cant build the future without foundations. Following this idea, the library becomes a double face element combining a traditional book library and a digital, interactive and virtual library.

About the area, as the project is located just on the edge between the historic part of the city (royal residence, Nyvahn old port, little mermaid) and the new modern architectural waterfront icons (theatre, opera), we easily came to a double face situation too : the project should use both traditional and modern assets of its location.

We started to design a cubic element allowing a good integration in the regular and orthogonal urban fabric of the area. Its back facade quite traditional and closed helps to support this idea. The two lateral facades are more dynamic with huge stairs attracting people to the main platform. Then the main facade more open and transparent puts the inside floating cube on a performance stage and create a dialog with the other waterfront buildings.

Various ways of using the building are permitted thanks to the concept of a nucleus kept in a floating box concentrating all the knowledge on both sides of its walls, available to everyone. This idea of taking a traditional library with bookcase, workspaces and computer areas and turning it into a central gravity point with free spaces all around available for library users and citizens passing by, transforms the building into a real attractive element of the citys-cape on both urban and cultural levels.

The urban mobilities metamorphosis

How to turn a road infrastructure into a wonderful place ?

Located on a highway interchange in the north of Nantes Metropolis, this project is based on a prospective vision of what could become a road infrastructure transforming our ways of moving in the city. It also raises questions about the use of those infrastructures : they generate a huge consumption of urban space most of the time transformed in neglected territories, abandoned and landlocked.

Here, the creation of a new crossing from one side to the other tends to offer a safe area for pedestrian and bikes. At the same time, a car-park aims to reduce the flows entering the city turning it into positive soft mobilities or public trans-port movings. Then a drive-in cinema and an observatory attempt to turn those kinetic flows into attractive activities. And finally, a concert hall emerges to gain attractivity through cultural activity.

The promenade linking all those programs together permits an easy access to this area of the city re-discovered : we can now get there thanks to a Periway Station taking place on the crossing above the ring road now welcoming a new tram line taking the path around the city.. All those projects put together, organised around the prome-nade structuring the flows, rhythms and users, are supposed to bring back a human scale in this aggressive, car-domi-nated territory : the promenade becomes the focal point of different temporalities and also a place for intermodality. A utopian scenario for a dynamic project. A human kinetic movement connected to a renewed urban territory.

Human bodies discovering architectural spaces

As the very first generation of students in the new architec-ture school of Lacaton-Vassal, we were brought by this vi-sual art studio to discover the building and its various archi-tectural spaces through a camera catching human bodies.

The first anecdotal shots turned, little by little, into thema-tic pictures where the bodies were discovering and playing with the big empty spaces of the school. Light and shadow, materiality and abstraction, inside and outside, upside down, we figured out by ourselves how many possibilities could offer such a building.

The photographic exercise evolved and was transformed into a workshop, so that the richness of the pictures taken, did not end locked in a hard-disk. A group was created and we began to collect pictures, to select and organise it in order to create a book that would make sense, that would translate an experience : it was a path across the school through its students eyes, each one trying to show something different, some ways to play with the building or to use it in its own way.

The publishing house Dilecta joined us and helped us to make this project possible. The book Nouveau(x) came out in Libraries on the 30rd of September of 2010. We orga-nised a conference, and even a launch ceremony. An exci-ting adventure which has shown how, the students look on a building they almost live in is worth considering and can be as rich as any article in an architectural magazine.
