"We are in the 10th district in Paris, on the corner of rue Bichat and rue Faubourg du Temple where we built a building with 91 housing units, a 66 crib crèche and shops.

To respect the climatic objectives, we insulate the building from the outside. Its façade has a wooden framework covered with fibre cement on the interior courtyard and in wood panels, street-side.

There is an opening onto the rue Faubourg du Temple and both buildings are laid out around a courtyard. 
The crèche is situated at the end of the courtyard. It has a roof top garden. The crèche is built in wood and lit by patios so all connecting areas are naturally it. 

Most of the apartments have dual exposure but its particularity is that the main room and kitchen provide a double orientation onto the street and the courtyard. 

The opening onto the rue Faubourg du Temple created 2 bow windows, 2 angles, which slightly change the alignement.

Its as if the apartment is in line with the road. What characterizes the environment is its industrious character : workshops, courtyards, diverse constructions.

This is what we wanted to express. It is a purposefully detailed addition on which the handwork and skill can be seen." 
Alexandre Chemetoff, architect
