#82 - Housing in Rue Jean-Bart

"In the heart of the dense 6th arrondissement, this project of eight dwellings strives to find a balance between a necessary discretion in the Parisian street and a resolutely contemporary architectural presence. Through its volume and positioning, the building completes and confirms a typical Parisian building frontage. Similarly, its vertical openings and the use of limestone allow it to be materially and formally inscribed in this environment. On the scale of the street, the project thus manifests only a discreet presence." - Jean-Christophe Quinton Architecte
