OFF & Duncan Lewis SCAPE Architecture shared with us their proposal for the Anglet Logements where they were invited to conciliate a project where the interests of protagonists are sometimes contradictory: the density of needed housing, the neighbors’ quality of living as well as the conservation of fauna and flora. This is an opportunity to invent new scenarios and to propose a strategy that reconciles history and development. More images and architects’ description after the break.

We are not in a moment of capitulation, not in a time where the history of a place is only kept by its souvenir. The question here is not about these beige, pink or white constructions. The proposed sites share an intrinsic value: the human as part of the collective memory of the neighborhood.
