Urban study – Sevran
Imagine a long wetland landscape bounded by two inhabited banks. The first bank is urban, a dense city fragment composed of adjoining buildings forming large planted courtyards. These courtyards are accessed through porches that provide views to the shore on one side, and to a boulevard on the other. The second bank is a wild landscape, consisting of detached houses, small apartment blocks, and superimposed houses. These buildings unfold along pedestrian alleyways leading to farmland. Between these two banks is a park dedicated to sport and leisure activities.
