The project takes place in the field of possibilities in the Mile-End, an alternative urban wasteland prized and appreciated by the local population. We analyzed it using a sensitive process allowing us to extract its essence and let it guide us.
In order to enrich without distorting the essence of the place, the new building integrated into the framework
metallic is worked with the objective of creating a sensory experience guided by strolling, contemplation and the need to slow down to take shape in space. Everything is part of the continuum of urban wandering, highlighting the principles of the architecture of wandering and fragmented spatial composition.
It is a question here of building disorientation, the routes are multiple, tortured, complex, global and immersive with detours and dead ends that force the man to move to see its full scope without ever putting the occupier in the face of his finality. The space is theatricalized, we pass from staging to staging through streets, stairs, dead ends, shortcuts, solids, voids and sensory baits that we will call punctum where it is possible to to roam, to meet, to find oneself and to be astonished. The whole is an ecosystem where the limit between inside and outside is deliberately ambiguous.
Finally, our intervention accentuates the experimental character of the place, letting us continue to have fun exploring it without ever really taming it.
