Petit Bourg Belvederes, Valenciennes

The pro­ject is set in a down­town urban context. The uni­que­ness of the pro­ject is defi­ned by its hete­ro­ge­neous sur­roun­ding fabric, varying heights and old plot struc­ture. A mul­ti­tude of small buil­dings echo the spe­ci­fi­city of the city of Valenciennes, crea­ting new land­marks. These varying heights offer a view of the city from bel­ve­deres. The two buil­dings open up an open-air pedes­trian shop­ping street and set the scene for the city by empha­si­zing the view axes.
