TRUDAINE

The project is located avenue Trudaine in the 9th arrondissement, one of the chic districts of Paris because of its dynamism, the quality of its buildings, allied to a calm and a particular serenity. 
The project of rehabilitation of a heritage building must do more than just blend in this unique environment: it must participate in the cultural influence of the architectural wealth of the project while preserving the serenity of the neighborhood. 

The group will include 20 social housing units, a nursery of 30 cradles, a co-working space and offices. Each program is well differentiated from an architectural and functional point of view. They have separate access and the crib operates independently. Each use is naturally reconciled in the project.  

The building, whose facade is classified, was built between 1863 and 1893. 
Architectural interventions focus primarily on the upper part of the central building which is not subject to protective measures. The facades on street are fully preserved and the silhouette of the whole remains the same as it is today. The main courtyard is covered with a light canopy to provide users with this exceptional setting. The finesse, elegance and the layout of the glass roof have been the subject of particular care to integrate into the proportions of the existing bedrock and thus complete the dialogue between heritage and modernity.
