Housing delivery in Arcueil

July 2022,

This 200-room building is one of three projects recently designed for ESID Ile de France (Defence Infrastructure Service Establishment). It reconciles the strong security constraints of the Montrouge Fort with the opening onto the city: the garden at the heart of the project benefits the public space, and offers residents a haven of calm and light.

Rennes 1 Campus 2030: the renovation of the Villejean health campus in 2022

February 2022,

Our consortium (Bouygues Bâtiment Grand Ouest, enia architects, C&E Architecture et Ingénierie, Inddigo, Oteis, Cabinet Collin, Acoustique Yves Hernot) won the tender for the framework agreement to renovate the three campuses of the University of Rennes 1.
Strong objectives (to divide the energy consumption of the campuses by 4) + an intervention on a remarkable architecture (that of Louis Arretche) + an occupied site: the renovation of the 20th century heritage is one of the major challenges we have to face.
We are extremely pleased to contribute to this ambitious pilot operation, and we would like to thank the University of Rennes 1 for its confidence.
The first building concerned is the Villejean Health Campus, where studies have begun.
See you in the summer of 2024 for delivery!

La Défense Inside-Out

July 2021,

The contribution of enia architects to an urban reflection carried out by Groupama immobilier with 5 architectural agencies who deliver their vision of the future of La Défense. 

Ring, paths, footbridges, suspended squares, gates, stations, links: our project is based on a hierarchy of embedded, complementary and evolving structures. The implantation of the Ring is conceived as an operation inverted in relation to the structure of the site, a backdrop which becomes a place in its own right. The fringes become the revealing force, the diagonal gives a new dimension to the site. These multiple wanderings allow La Défense to pass from a public good to a common good.
