paris habitat champigny-sur-marne | 1st prize
r architecture
we had the pleasure to create a series of images for r architecture from paris and their 1st prize winning competition project in bois l’abbé, champigny-sur-marne, for paris habitat.
the project rehabilitates the rameau and solomon buildings (213 + 90 apartments), requalifies the ground floors, and removes 78 units to open a new public street. by stripping away the 90s cladding, the design reveals the original architecture of the 60s–70s: a clear rhythm of solids and voids, horizontal and vertical lines.
beyond technical upgrades, the rehabilitation restores the buildings’ modernist heritage, turning thermal improvements into a lever for collective pride and the promise of a better future.
