The main characteristic of this new neighbourhood is the laying-out of a huge central landscaped space in the form of a densely planted pedestrian walkway. This treelined pedestrian zone is laid out at right angles to the Seine and links the riverbank, boulevard and nearby streets, as well as the riverside terraces of the neighbouring shopping centre.


The residential buildings are organised in a staggered formation along the urban park. The Seine-side entrance is marked by a striking element in the form of a taller building.


The ensemble of this “signal tower” and the opening of the landscaped mall onto the riverbank strongly marks the entrance to the town of Villeneuve-la-Garenne.


The contrasting interplay of the alternating increase and decrease in size of the buildings as one approaches or retreats from the Seine, enables the facing views to be managed.


The exterior prolongation of the dwellings, in the form of balconies and terraces is strongly characteristic of the project’s architecture.


Lastly, the functional and social mix encourages neighbourliness, meet-ups, cohabitation and sharing, while preserving residents’ privacy.

La caractéristique principale de ce nouveau quartier est l’aménagement d’un vaste espace central paysagé, un mail piétonnier très végétalisé. Cette coulée boisée s’organise perpendiculairement à la Seine et relie le quai, le boulevard et les rues avoisinantes ainsi que les terrasses en bord de Seine du centre commercial voisin.


Les immeubles d’habitation s’organisent en quinconce le long de ce parc urbain. Un élément singulier souligne l’entrée côté Seine sous la forme d’un immeuble plus élevé. L’ensemble de cette tour signal et l’ouverture du mail paysagé sur le quai marquent fortement l’entrée de la ville de Villeneuve-la-Garenne.


Le jeu de croissance et de décroissance contrariées de la taille des immeubles selon que l’on se rapproche ou s’éloigne de la Seine, permet de gérer les vis-à-vis. Les prolongements extérieurs des logements sous forme de balcons et de terrasses, caractérisent fortement l’architecture du projet.


Enfin, la mixité fonctionnelle et sociale favorise le côtoiement, la rencontre, la cohabitation et le partage tout en préservant l’intimité des habitants.
