Villeneuve-la-Garenne, a wealthy town in Hauts-de-Seine, is being transformed. The main characteristic of this new district is the development of a vast central landscaped space, a green pedestrian mall reproducing all the strata making up the natural undergrowth.
One hundred and ten trees of different local species, shrub beds, beds of plants and grasses make up this urban park which is organized perpendicular to the Seine. It connects the quay, the boulevard and the surrounding streets as well as the terraces along the Seine of the neighboring shopping center.
Buildings around the urban forest
Apartment buildings are arranged in a staggered pattern along this central urban forest. A singular element highlights the entrance on the Seine side in the form of a taller building. This entire signal tower and the opening of the landscaped mall on the quay strongly mark the entrance to the town of Villeneuve-la-Garenne.
The game of growth and decline in the size of the buildings as one approaches or moves away from the Seine, allows for the management of vis-à-vis. The exterior extensions of the housing in the form of balconies and terraces, strongly characterize the architecture of the project.
Finally, functional and social diversity encourages mixing, meeting, cohabitation and sharing while preserving the privacy of residents.
