a common property
To create meaningful architecture, involve residents and users in the
design and construction of their projects. For sustainable buildings, reflect together on uses, implementation,
operation, maintenance, and the life cycle of the building. To conceive the architectural project as a shared living space, consider the balance between coexisting people, fauna, and flora.

An opportunity to share
Each project brings together a multidisciplinary team: it is a convergence of practices and expertise.
The act of building can serve as a unifying force for a community. It involves reviving traditions of mutual aid and envisioning architecture as an opportunity for sharing and mediation.
Involving residents and users means incorporating co-design workshops, participatory construction processes, support for self-build and self-renovation, and educational initiatives.
For projects rooted in participatory approaches, the architect’s expertise is combined with skills in mediation and event coordination.

A combination of materials and expertise
Attention to detail and restraint are the foundations of my practice. It means using the right material in the right place, without seeking to reinvent construction methods.
It means using materials in appropriate proportions, creating projects that are rich in creativity yet modest in energy consumption.
It means supporting, through architectural choices, sectors and craft traditions that have sometimes disappeared or been weakened by the effects of globalization. It means choosing craftsmanship and local supply chains.
It means prioritizing local timber, straw, dry stone construction, earth, and plant-based fibers, as well as reuse, and to a lesser extent, recycling.

An architect serving as a guide
To me, the role of a contemporary architect is that of a guide in the construction process.
It involves bringing ideas and each client’s story to life in a physical space.
It means bringing together and coordinating passionate partners for each project.
It involves creating opportunities and spaces to reflect and build a desirable future together.
