The project site is characterized by a building succession of large footprints that cohabit on a deserted land. Our goal was to preserve the site's identity and enhance it. Our project " Bègles and the Urban-Machines " aims to reveal the great potential of industrial structures and uses it to imagine something new. We believe that these large buildings are an opportunity to expose the architecture's ability to create the city.
