Vilgénis
Description
In the exceptional site of the wooded park of Vilgénis, the residence is made of two large volumes of 5 to 6 floors which are articulated around a central plot of three levels. Delicately located in the middle of the existing trees, the building follows the slope of the land to better inhabit the forest. Its prefabricated concrete base houses the residence's common areas. It is largely glazed to let appreciate the woods that surround it. On the upper floors, the reading of the blocks is made possible by the significantly differentiated writing of the spinning balconies and the filters in the facade. The materiality of these mirror or anodized aluminum filter panels varies according to the light. Sometimes with a patina, the second skin is similar to the color of the bark. Sometimes shimmering, it reflects peaks and sky and partially camouflages the building.
