Garden for housing in Gennevilliers ZAC Chanteraines
The idea is to create a group of trees through which residents can pass and possibly stop. The boardwalk pathways are elevated above the ground, which has its own leveling. At the center of the trees, a concrete base materializes the meeting space of the paths. To the east, a second garden is created, inaccessible and entirely dedicated to water management. V-shaped hollows are installed on the slope. One after another, they retain rainwater from the roofs, allow it to infiltrate, and release it to the next one located below.
