The following is a range of projects exploring ways to write the city and the landscape. I am looking to make the architectural design less visually obvious. The aim is to create two kinds of opposing yet complimentary design styles : (1) the invisible architecture and (2) the landmark.

gesture we developed a concept of “third nature” and applied it to the
existing equipements and protected areas in the city. A systemic green
belt - from the largest scale to the smalest one - was drawn for Grenoble
in order to link and not subordonnate the human system with the fauna
and flora system.

a range of urban and vegetal squares along a path through the campus.
each of us have develloped a square. I focussed on the marketplace.

program urban and architectural programmatic scenario and re-design
brief redevelopment of Via Roma :
Le soluzioni progettuali potranno essere sviluppate liberamente fermo
restando il rispetto delle normative vigenti di riferimento e dei limiti perimetrali
dell’area di intervento. Le proposte progettuali dovranno approfondire e
sviluppare adeguatamente sia la qualità architettonica dell’intervento, sia il
tema dell’integrazione di quanto proposto al particolare contesto storico.

SCHOOLREFORMING THE HILLlocation thessalonki area greece
scale 10.000m2
program educationnal planning featuring a school and a kidden garden
= 8 classrooms + multipurpose hall + library + offices + playground
brief the project’s located on the top of a hill - hill had been damaged by a
previous planning which had erased all of the original slope.
gesture our goal was to integrate the new planning by giving again a hilly
shape. all the classrooms - and the kidden garden - are burrowed under
of the playground stratum, whereas a main and impressive building serves
as entrance and all other common functions.

The site is located on the channeled Rhône - a big swiss-french river - near to a hydraulic dam. We first tried to reorganize the network (roads ; cycle ways ; pavements ; pathes) wich were incoherent in some parts. We have chosen to devellop this network from a key point (a new entrance with parking lots ; a restaurant ; a museum ; a storage place). This point would be reconnecting the land and the dam - dam wich is the prerequisite point to cross the natural Rhône. A bridge-building was our solution to introduce to a large public this site, and a the same time to link the network to the watercourses.We develloped an alternative accomodation way. A place to stay some nights, a kind of ‘durable tent’.
ENSA GRENOBLEYEAR 3FRANK PRUNGNAUD LA GUINGUETTE SITE LOCATED IN CHAMPAGNEUX, FRANCEIN A PARTNERSHIP WITH G. AUGER & M. BRAHAMIA1000 M2 / STRATEGY AND DESIGN FOR : PROMENADE ; RESTAURATION ; ACCOMODATION ; DISCOVERY AND PROTECTION OF THE SITE16 WEEKS
More than being merely a matter of design, the architectural project is above all to be built and then to be experimented. To ensure the durability of the design and its uses, we must experiment all the ways : one-self’s way and the others’ ways. Therefore questioning our architecture constantly. In time, experimenting on the scale 1:1 various stucture became a necessity to me. It came from this interrogation : How to intend building a virtuous space while not having the knowledge of the material, the environement and the people living there?
EXPERIMENTED SPACES AND PROCESSES
YES WE CAMP ! MARSEILLE 2013ALTERNATIVE CAMPGROUNDlocation l’éstaque, marseille, france
scale 6.500m2
program urban village crowd funded
brief the idea of the Camping 2013 came up with a simple observation : Marseille is
expecting millions of visitors as European Capital of Culture in 2013, but you cannot
find any camping at less than 30 km
gesture More than enlarging the accommodation offer, the Camping 2013 concept
may be understood as a platform for different actors to meet and innovate. The
project is a collective work in which anyone, from neighbours to urban professionals,
can make propositions to enrich the campsite or give a hand in its realisation. This
approach could be identified as collaborative crowdsourcing, volunteers putting their
skills and ideas in common to make the project evolve.

YES WE CAMP ! 2013-2017ENGINEERING THE FREEDOMlocation marseille and paris areas
scale from 1 up to 7.000m2
program masterplans, programmatics, designs and experiments
brief Yes We Camp was just meant to be a campsite during the 2013 summer
in l’Estaque. It became a group of people united by the will to keep on creating
together, take action in the public space, arouse meetings, and also to experiment,
share, reveal points of view, and give to everyone the appetite to invest the places
that they know on a daily basis.
gesture our projects essentially tends to reveal the magical of the place and also to
reconnect parts of cities thanks participative initiatives. The prototyping of ecological
showers, urban gardening, urban space hacking became our modum operatum.

brief a third and last World War and many nuclear bombs make occur
an earth crust scattering from which results an important modification of
gravity
gesture some big rocks are now flying, waters became vapours in the
airs, and human beings do not walk anymore, they are in a weightlessness.
according to live protected by the underground, humans had to find a way
to put the daylight inside their life spaces. enlightment - efficient all year
long - is the first priority. here is an experiment of the various atmospheres
obtainable with this architecture. an underground architecture, entirely
angled on the light - the daylight.

gesture we were asked to ‘act in situ’. Considering the disrespect toward
the nature in Greece, I turned to the forest, more precisely, under the ring-
road. The goal was to show greek people their own rubbish by re-using
any rubbish found on the place in their original purposes.
