Contemporary Architecture Developments in France, western Europe
Paris ArchitectureDiriger aux Bâtiments de ParisThe capital of France is a renowned city for architecture. Celebrated architects that lived or worked here include Le Corbusier, Perrault and Nouvel. The city has strong formal axes and spaces, with many interesting buildings by famous designers. Louvre Pyramid ; Eiffel Tower ; Trocadero ; lnstitut du Monde Arabe     photos © Isabelle Lomholt / Adrian Welch We've selected what we feel are the key examples of Parisian Architecture Designs. We aim to include buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both. We cover completed buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across the city. The focus is on contemporary Parisian buildings but information on traditional buildings is also welcome. We have 8 pages of Parisian Architecture selections with links to hundreds of individual project pages.

Through him the chocolate has emerged as a world of flavor, taste, and as a material for reversible property changes state from solid to liquid state. Rudy Ricciotti Exhibition, Cite de l’architecture Show 'Architecture is a combat sport' - architectural article by Rebecca Breun, e-architect  photo © RB Rudy Ricciotti Exhibition - 16 Apr 2013 There can be no question about it: Rudy Ricciotti is the French architect to watch at present. So it was no surprise that Cite de l’architecture in Paris put on an exhibition dedicated to him. Since the construction of the stadium in Vitrolles in the 1990’s, his architecture practice has been responsible for a number of important buildings both in France and elsewhere. This is not signature architecture. Ecole Bobigny Design: Mikou Design Studio  image from architect Ecole Bobigny - new photos added 5 Mar 2013 The city centre school in Bobigny is in a strategic urban location, bounded by three large streets and by a pedestrian space on the north. It is in the middle of an urban complex mainly composed of housing, near the city hall. Therefore this new school is a visually remarkable amenity, visible by its façades and its roof, a founding element of the project onto which the openings of the neighbouring dwellings face. Piscine du Fort, Issy-les-Moulineaux, south west Paris Design: Mikou Design Studio  picture from architect Piscine Issy-les-Moulineaux Jean Lurçat College, Saint Denis, south east Paris Design: Mikou Design Studio  photograph from architects Jean Lurçat College - new photos added 5 Mar 2013 This french school building is located in the "articulation of two landscape types: a space of shattered non-structured housing blocks which give the district its identity and give a convivial scale on the rues Diderot and d'Alembert; the sports park which opens itself towards the landscape of Courneuve and enables the college to have an open view and a strong liaison with the green areas of the city". M Building, Rue Rebière Design: Stephane Maupin & Partners  photo : Cécile Septet M Building in Paris - 28 Feb 2013 The project takes place in the north Pierre Rebiere Street is a 600 meters long and 25 meters wide straight line. It is surrounded by the Batignoles’ cemetery on one side and by the back entrance of the international high school Honoré de Balzac on the other. The transformation of this narrow abandoned street allows the establishment of whole string of new buildings. Biscornet, Place de la Bastille Design: [BP] Architectures  photograph : Sergio Grazia Biscornet Paris - 26 Feb 2013 Is there an architect who has not dreamed of designing a building for the Biscornet site, which lay abandoned for so long? Its location is truly spectacular: slightly set back from the Place de la Bastille, it lies where the rue de Lyon and the road running along the canal basin meet; on one side you have a perspective towards the Gare de Lyon, on the other a view of the Bassin de l’Arsenal. Police Station of Safety and Proximity Design: Fabienne Bulle Architecte  photo : Hervé Abbadie Police Station Building in Paris - 25 Feb 2013 Hypernuit Offices Design: h2o architectes  photo : Julien Attard Hypernuit Offices - 22 Feb 2013 The project takes place on the ground floor of a building of flats, behind a large window looking out onto the street. The office space to create has a single orientation; it is a well-lit, plainly treated volume with a simple geometry. The commission consisted in fitting-out an office space including five identical desks, a common meeting room and shared facilities. 'Basket Apartments' Design: Ofis Arhitekti, Slovenia  photograph : Tomaz Gregoric Student Apartments Paris - 19 Feb 2013 The project is located on a long and very narrow site, on the edge of Parc La Vilette in Paris’s 19th district, within an urban development done by Reichen & Robert architects. On the northeast, new Paris tram route is passing along the site. The site is bordering with tram garage on the southwest, above which is a football field. The first 3 floors of the housing will inevitably share the wall with the tram garage. FFR Grand Stade, Essone, south west of Paris Design: Populous + Ateliers 2/3/4/  photo from architects FFR Grand Stade After several months of discussions with three competing groups, the FFR has made its choice of designers and has issued the first computer-rendered images for the new French Rugby Stadium building. Samaritaine Cheval Blanc Design: Edouard François  photograph © Edouard François La Samaritaine Cheval Blanc Paris - 15 Jan 2013 The exceptional site for this confidential project is a historic department store designed by Henri Sauvage that overlooks the Seine river and the Pont Neuf. The Samaritaine is a landmark that embodies a Parisian tradition. Giraffe Childcare Center Hondelatte Laporte Architectes  photo : Philippe Ruault Giraffe Childcare Center - 14 Jan 2013 The Giraffe childcare center is located in the C1 block of the Seguin Rives de Seine district in Boulogne-Billancourt, a suburban area of Paris. The program houses a 60 bed childcare center and 20 bed day nursery. The building has been awarded the green “zéro Energie Effinergie” label.

Bellini / Musée du Louvre © Lisa Ricciotti Louvre Museum Visconti Courtyard - 21 Sep 2012 A new cutting-edge architectural structure is to open to the public after five years of construction work; designed to showcase the museum’s treasures of Islamic art, the new project is located in the Visconti courtyard, at the very centre of the Louvre. Lafarge has worked in close partnership with the architects to supply the most appropriate materials for the structure, hailed as the most significant museum expansion project since the Louvre’s great Pyramid.
