The Light of City——Inject light into the 'crack'

The La Petite Ceinture of Paris, once surrounded by a glowing belt, has been being abandoned for years and is gradually being forgotten, and now it is still in its own way to get along with the city, but it is no longer so vibrant. The La Petite Ceinture, like a crack in the flood of city time, quietly waiting for the light to re-enter.

We value the idea of organizing a new entrance that stablishes the relation between the city and the new spaces below. We miss a better understanding of the treatment of the central space.

Peripherique in Movement

A design proposal aiming to expand along the peripherique starting from Petite Centurie where it will act as a starting point between the end of the existing flux zones and the start of the new flux areas, extending along the beltway (peripherique) and, creating enough momentum to induce the circular movement.

Collaboration in Urban Voids

This proposal is an urban collaborative system that aims to establish modular spaces that connect people with different backgrounds in such a diverse city as Paris. Our project offers various activities and attracts communities to collaboration. It aims to revive the obsolete infrastructure of Petite Ceinture.

WEMAKEPARIS

All human actions have an influence on urban space. We make city. We make Paris. On the ring railway we create 15 unique stations with “names -actions”. They correspond to the hobbies and possible actions of Parisians and tourists on the route, which is tied to existing objects in the city.

Salut Paris

The project is the work of a segmented volume reducing the envelope. Thanks to the openings this maximizes the interactions between interior and exterior. With the watchword “favor the use of reusable materials while leaving the rails and passage intact”, testimony to the history of the city.
