An emblematic building in Tourcoing (59), the Villa Maillard had nevertheless fallen into disuse for many years.

It was during the “Nocturnes” exhibition at the Fondation Henri Cartier Bresson (3rd arrondissement) that we discovered an unprecedented corpus of works by the Spanish artist Marie Bovo: photographs from five different series, but all taken at dusk, between dog and wolf, which magnify deserted cities and falsely depopulated spaces. While the confinement has just been extended until May 11, these images of the void, captured between France and Africa, seem particularly appropriate.

In close collaboration with the Studio Adrien Gardère, the architects of Bien Urbain - architecture workshop, Guillaume Cantardjian, Nicolas Cèbe and Jérôme Stablon, rethink with a contemporary look the Fashion Galleries of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris (1st arrondissement) .

The architect Christophe Roussel delivers a set of 134 dwellings completed by five commercial premises in Colombes (92). A curvaceous program, as its name suggests, since it can be identified by its multitude of tortuous balconies. Back on a strong architectural gesture.
