Station F
Paris, France
The intelligence of the project lies in its programme, which fits into the building without disfiguring its structure. The interest of our intervention, by leaving the concrete vaults and the perspective on the length of the building visible, is to have preserved this industrial heritage.

This programme has enabled the renovated Freyssinet Hall to reconnect with its neighbourhood through the profound transformation of its surroundings. In addition to the forecourt to the north and the terraced garden to the south, two new side streets have been created that favour pedestrians and plants. These streets are lined with a series of shops and businesses that attract the neighbourhood's inhabitants, thus encouraging exchanges with the 3,000 young people who continuously colonise the Station F space.
