Cycle de rencontre ● Le logement tout le monde en parle, mais pour faire quoi ?

Table ronde #1 I Construire toujours plus, mais comment ?
Comment répondre aux besoins en termes de production de logements, où les construire et avec quelles formes urbaines, à l’heure de la loi ZAN, de l’étalement urbain, d’un besoin de nature dans certaines villes, et du refus de la densité de la part des populations et certains élus ?

L’exemple de Detroit aux Etats-Unis peut s’envisager comme une réelle étape de décroissance et s’imposer comme l’axe majeur d’un nouveau paradigme urbain. “Reanimate the ruins”, tel était le sujet du concours lancé en 2014 pour sortir de la déprime. Le projet lauréat “Cross the plant”, conçu par une équipe française, propose alors la transformation en centre urbain de l’ancienne usine de production d’automobiles Packard, désaffectée depuis 1987 [...]

In Paris, the battle of ecology versus social issues

“Building a city” and “building ecology”, two contradictory movements with inverted trajectories, abandoned by politicians on one hand and co-opted on the other? In Paris, based on the results of the last European elections, the stage is set for the upcoming municipal elections.
