SHAPING THE LIMIT
École Nationale supérieure d’Architecture de Paris-Belleville, 2015
Prof. Pier Louis Faloci
Individual work
Research Center, Meudon (France)
The project is located in a forest which separates the city of Meudon into two parts. The first aim of the course was to create a path which could connect these two sides of the city, proposing some architectural projects to make it more attractive.
The research center is placed between two lakes, where the path changes its direction following an historical axe.
The project is connected to the border of the hexagonal lake, proposing the theme of a new wall that define the volumes of the building exploring the idea of a visual and physical barrier.
There is a continuous dialogue between concrete and steel, with massive and light structures, focusing on the views on the path and the relation to the ground.
