housing estate




Atelier d.org is experimenting a new compact housing concept in the middle of a private housing estate by building an eco-aware house and proposing a return to living closer to the natural elements. The evolution of the urban shape of housing estates using new house layout makes the neighbourhood denser thus creating a new relationship between the living rooms and the outdoor spaces. The Architects focused its attention to bioclimatic principles to benefit from passive natural energies and complement energy saving technologies. The parcel-house is partly built on the lot limits which is contrary to the classical layout of housing estates. It allows organising the outdoor space with specific objectives directly linked to the interior spatial design.
