Young workers' residence with crèche by Chartier Dalix + Avenier Cornejo Architectes in Paris
Won by the team of Chartier Dalix + Avenier Cornejo Architectes, the foyer de jeunes travailleurs (young workers' residence) and 60-place crèche stands between Paris and Les Lilas. The building will provide 180 rooms for young workers, 60 rooms for migrants and a 66-place crèche.
The scheme is massive in form, the outcome of a study on urban density. Two elements, however, break up the volume.
The first is a vertical slot, which brings daylight into the circulation areas and acts as a bioclimatic space. The second is the open floor, which will house a media library, a sports hall, a refectory, and the maintenance and service areas.
The project occupies a 1,780 m² plot on the corner of avenue du Docteur-Gley and rue Paul-Meurice, in the ZAC Porte des Lilas (Paris 20th arrondissement). The building will have a total floor area of 9,300 m², at an estimated cost of €15.7 million.
