Olympic Media village – Paris Olympics 2024
Dugny (93)
Voici les propositions de traduction pour ce texte qui met en valeur l’architecture des plots en brique, la morphologie du plan masse et le concept de réversibilité (« phase héritage ») propre aux projets olympiques.
🇬🇧 En anglais
Project Description
As an extension of the surrounding park-city (ville-parc), the project establishes a new centrality on the Plateau, complementing the town center of Dugny. The ambition: to create a contemporary, frugal, and sustainable garden-city model that dialogues with existing garden cities. The project operates in two phases: functioning as a media hub during the Games, and transitioning into family housing during the legacy phase.
It adapts the urban master plan’s block-type system (plots) to each specific context. This morphology generates bright, dual-aspect apartments extended by generous outdoor spaces. The buildings rest on plinths that absorb the plateau’s topography, freeing up landscaped areas, services, and well-integrated parking.
All buildings are constructed from solid brick, a durable material resistant to climate and pollution that requires no future resurfacing. Deployed as three blocks emerging from a planted courtyard heart, the 140 housing units act like carved and sculpted totems, playing with light and orientation. Architectural moldings (modénatures) and brick tones grant each block a strong identity, allowing residents to feel a sense of belonging. At ground level, meticulous landscape design creates sheltered private gardens, at the crossroads of individual and collective living.
