Based in Paris, France, Tristan Huguen worked on three housing projects in the city center.
The goal was to renove or extend existing infrastructure to make them more pleasant to live, fonctional and equipped.
Working on relatively small surfaces: an old maid's room, a studio and a rooftop terrasse and studio, contraints become more importants. It is why he works guided by clearly diffined lines to follow: acoustic and thermal performance, functionnality and flexibility of the space, lighting and privacy of the inhabitant and finaly the global aesthetic.
He also worked on a social and student housing project in Paris' suburb inside an agency.
This short project concerns the creation of a hall for a low-budget apartment building.
To increase the brightness of the room which has a small surface, we wanted a clear and lively wall covering. Which is why we chose a white ribbed marble to cover the walls’ surface.
On the right is a disbursement dedicated to residents. They can leave there books they no longer need or exchange them with their neighbors.
