Type of territory

Located in the 14th arrondissement, along the Boulevard Jourdan between the Porte d'Orléans and the Cité Internationale Universitaire in Paris, the RATP Porte-Orléans bus center has begun a "long process of renovation. the imperative technical optimization of the 1.7 hectare site, the Régie aspires to remodel deep into the surrounding urban landscape while enhancing its land.

Challenges for the strategic site of the Porte d'Orléans:

Developing in the south a linear of 91 meters on the Jourdan boulevard, whose urban landscape is deeply requalified on the occasion of the arrival of the Parisian tramway, this parcel also runs along the streets Père-Corentin in the west and the Tombe- Issoire to the east, about 100 linear meters.

The low altitude and the partial withdrawal of the warehouses occupying it give it false pitches of hollow teeth, compared to the density of the surrounding buildings.

The industrial logic of the workshop imposing a horizontal development, the vertical urbanization of the parcel, essential to its urbanity, therefore necessarily raises other functions, preferably generating additional architectural and economic benefits. Indeed, this density must also contribute to minimize the financial impact of the renovation extension of the deposit in the overall budget of the operation

Buildings

To carry out the architectural design of this ambitious project, the RATP Group and the City of Paris have entrusted the project management to three architectural firms: Nasrine Seraji, Eric Lapierre and Emmanuel Combarel & Dominique Marrec.

The originality of the project: these three firms worked together on the project management of the bus center and, on this base, each designed a specific part of the complex: Nasrine Seraji realized the social housing, the private housing of the Boulevard Jourdan , as well as the nursery, Eric Lapierre student residence and Emmanuel Combarel & Dominique Marrec, private housing located rue du Père Corentin. Each building thus displays a unique and original design, and fits into an overall harmony around the bus center. The quality of life and use of the various buildings, both for the functionalities of the bus center and for the accommodation and the nursery, was particularly elaborated. The architectural project, playing on the superposition of different levels, gives pride of place to light, space and vegetated surfaces.
