L1VE Grande Armee
Paris FR . 2018 - 2022
The aim of the project is to bring in new life into the iconic building, the historic headquarters of Peugeot in Paris, and to create a place to live, experiment and innovate. The landscape concept draws an analogy between the alpine stratification of the mountain landscape and the unique architectural stratification of the building.
Each floor is inspired by a specific natural landscape (hilly, mountainous, alpine, subalpine ...), which is reinterpreted according to its typology (courtyard, garden and terrace) and its local Parisian characteristics. The project aims to create a natural landscape in the heart of Parisian architecture and urban space. The diversity of the plant palettes and atmospheres characterizes the identity of each place, whereby the continuity of the interpretation in their sequence and in the use of common materials is preserved.

The diversity of the environments projected on the whole area ensures a high level of biodiversity with the use of species almost all of which are native to the Ile-de-France basin. The species are also selected based on their biological characteristics to create favorable conditions for supporting the local fauna.
