The architects’ studio Beckmann N’Thépé has just won the competition launched by Nexity & DBS for the construction of a real estate complexe situated on the AA block of the ZAC Seguin-Rives de Seine in Boulogne Billancourt (92). The program carries social housing (211 units) and home-buying, a youth hostel, parking lots and a garden.
Answering to the site specifications, the architects’ proposal is based on a “green” capillary action expressed into the housing project.
Just situated next to the Billancourt Park, the proximity with the river is reinforced by the creation of a block core developped with a wood.
All project faces two directions and each unit is provided with at least one outside space.
For the facades, the architects have chosen a green-blue mosaic for the facade facing the river Seine and a grey-red-beige mosaic for the road facade. This choice helps to anchor the building into its environnement and in the same time to animate the long facade.
Surface : 16.596m2 SHON + parking
Cost : 25,9 M€
Landscapers : Atelier Roberta
