Courbevoie
Paris, France - second prize
For the Courbevoie competition, we developed a streetscape stretching from La Defense to Place du Capricorn and refurbishment of the roof terrace of the Parking Lot. The streetscape uses porous paving surfaces and rain gardens, the concept is inspired by the bed of the river in rain days in Paris. The rooftop is an orchid of 100 trees ( column= 1 tree) with roof-like canopies and furniture integrated with nature. The space is reconnecting the street to the community, using fruit trees and increasing the green percentage to the mineral context surrounding Courbevoie - Place Gambetta.
