"Our proposal for the Paris-Saclay site is first and foremost a territorial project. Our project is about looking for coherence between different existing territories (plateau, slope, valley) by enhancing the specificities and characters of the site. The quest for the territorial coherence is double, as it has to be conceived in accordance with the significant developments on the plateau, as well as the existing neighbourhoods in the valley of the River Yvette."
