[REPLAY] S4#22🇺🇸🇬🇧"Repairing, reconstructing, anticipating", with Céline Bouvier

Com d'Archi

Now we should think about repairing, reconstructing, transforming.

Céline Bouvier is one of the four associate architects at LBBA Architecture. In Anne-Charlotte's interview, she talks, with French sensibility, about her beginnings in the USA, the future of the agency and two projects by LBBA.

The first one is the headquarter of the prestigious L'Oréal company, in Clichy. A historical site, that was transformed little by little to create an avant-garde workspace, open onto a beautiful garden. A loft, not so formal but warm and welcoming, offering intimate spaces. As it is a project with challenges since the site is difficult to access, a light steel structure was designed to be brought easily into the space.

The second one is located in Vitry, along the Seine river. The mixed-use project 'Les Docks du Port à L'Anglais' was to recreate a little piece of city, on a very polluted site. The quality of this work resides not in its built mass but in its voids, the quality of the urban space. It offers a new 'art de vivre au travail' (‘way of life at work’) in the bigger dynamique of the Grand Paris.
