28 Housing Units in Villeurbanne
The housing project is organised into three buildings of decreasing height, ensuring a controlled transition between a dense urban fabric to the south and lower-rise buildings to the north. The fragmentation of volumes through setbacks, loggias, and vertical breaks allows for the integration of a high-density programme while preserving views, sunlight, and privacy. Protected exterior walkways, loggias equipped with metal shutters, and a raised garden contribute to user comfort and urban quality.
