Located in the center of Euromed 2 in Marseille, the Allar demonstrator is an experimental area with an international vocation demonstrator. It declines the sustainable Mediterranean city objectives pursued by the EcoCité Euroméditerranée in the comprehensive development guide plan designed by the agency François Leclercq associated Sbriglio Jacques Rémy Marciano, TER and SETEC Agency.

Around Eiffage, an ecosystem of partners consisting of major groups, SMEs, start-ups, environmental associations, Clusters, training and research centers, should allow the present wasteland to welcome a new "core village " in High Quality of Life® for the 3000 residents, employees and visitors.

While users are at the heart of the program that promotes functional diversity, generational and social recovery of urban continuity, and as a corollary the attractiveness of the area, is a challenge. In response, the approach by Mediterranean architecture combining quality of use, comfort and bioclimatic plastic materiality with Eduardo Souto de Moura as a leader, to which strong vegetal presence in heart operation actively involved, aims to irrigate the "better live together ".

The systemic approach to sustainable urban development 

The Allar eco-district is the operational demonstrator approach of Phosphore: a systems approach for sustainable urban development, covering all the components of the urban ecosystem (energy, construction, mobility, uses, ecological services) and taking into account both the consequences of climate change and social changes. The man and the use in the heart of the design

The Allar eco district is illustrated as the demonstrator of a neighborhood in High Quality of Life®. The overall design and the selected solutions have all been studied in terms of uses. They aim to promote programmatic mix, social and generational, promote social cohesion and support new ways of working and living.

Respect for territorial specificities or the "Urban Engineering". This is a tailor-made project that resonates with the specific genius of the territory: geographic context / Mediterranean climate, social and economic context of local urban development of the area.

The partner ecosystem to support innovation

The eco-neighborhood Allar is an incubator for innovative solutions and a demonstrator of advanced knowledge from french sustainable city. It brings together a broad partner ecosystem: public authorities (State, Town Hall, urban community, Euromed Development Corporation), large groups (Eiffage, EDF, Orange Business Services, Lafarge), SMEs, innovative Start- ups (Sodetrel, echy , Polypop, Urbagri, Amplify kind, etc.), associations (LPO, Humanity and Biodiversity), etc.

The evolving nature of the project registered in an urban area changing

The eco-neighborhood Allar is a pioneer and an evolving project, brought to irrigate the future of sustainable urban development Euroméditérannée area. It will become a future demonstration of French know-how in sustainable city with an international scope.

Quality of life / density

The HQVie® program is defined as a model or set of processes involved in the design, construction and operation of a residential/tertiary building or development layout. It is characterized by the quality of life objective perspective and the health of the inhabitants, the functionality of buildings and infrastructure and the contribution to social and environmental harmony.

The principle HQVie® is to design a project according to five principles:

  • Respect engineering planning
  • Rational management of flows and mobilities
  • Intensification and scalability of uses
  • Cohesion, health and well-being
  • Risk prevention and resilience

Net density

Social diversity 

The 60 000 m2 included in the program emphasize the uses by promoting mixed use (residential, office, retail, hotel), generational (seniors residence, nursery) and social (public housing, accessing primary and free).

The project objective is to create a new "core village" of over 4000 inhabitants, employees and visitors in line with the spirit of Marseille neighborhoods.

Social inclusion and safety 

Meeting place between workers, neighborhood children, the elderly of the residence, residents of the hotel and residents, smartseille promotes linkages. The common areas, shared gardens, shared services between neighbors generate sharing and conviviality opportunities.

True community, Smartseille brings together people who are sensitive to the challenges of the city of tomorrow but also of the society.

Ambient air quality and health

Particular attention was paid to acoustic studies on all of the block, taking particular account of the presence of the motorway bridge before it's burying on the future for the North-Coastal ledge project.

Biodiversity and natural areas

Enrich the landscape by using the Mediterranean species locally sourced when it is possible, by multiplying the layers of vegetable and mineral biotope, asking the built habitat and creating a canopy over the entire block.

Develop urban agriculture by creating an urban orchard and building a socio-educational vegetable garden on the terrace of the residence for the elderly and propose the installation of a hydroponic greenhouse

Adopt a favorable management of biodiversity by providing a maintenance "zero phyto", reducing light pollution related to public lighting and feeding as much as possible areas of open ground with runoff

Energy sobriety

The various buildings in smartseille district are connected by a network of pipes for heat exchange between them.

All need air conditioning or heating primarily uses excess heat or cold produced by the neighbors.

The distribution of areas between offices and housing ensures optimum balance. It allows local consumption, avoiding waste. An innovation specifically provided by Eiffage

SOLUTIONS

    Energitecture®

    Smartseille requirements are reduced at source and covered with renewable local resources, with the help of sea water loop. The buildings thus meet the requirements of bioclimatic "Energitecture® "consisting of combining architectural excellence in energy efficiency.

    The winds and ​​solar study optimize the configuration of the buildings, notably to limit the effects of vortices related to the prevailing winds and the Mistral, and to limit the impact of solar radiation in summer. The canopy covering the entire area will also impact positively on the microclimate by limiting the effect of urban heat island in the biodiversity profile.

    The architecture of the buildings is thought to account for the best energy efficiency

    The Mediterranean Green Building label will also validate the building design process, which uses the Mediterranean climate as a lever for thermal performance, to achieve the level Effinergie + for offices and exceed regulatory requirements heat in social housing.

    loop Thalassothermique

    Eiffage and EDF Optimal Solutions took private initiative to design a Saltwater loop bringing to 60% the rate of contribution of renewable energy for heating and refresh the buildings within the Allar demonstrator.

    This major innovation is to build a tempered water system that the balancing source is seawater drawn from medium depth off the docks and the temperature is almost constant. The sampling seawater will require the installation of buried pipes to capture and release, as well as the creation of a pumping chamber, without in any way disrupt the activities of the Port of Marseille.

    The saltwater loop will serve the heart of Allar demonstrator providing continuously at the foot of each building a constant temperature water. Each building will be connected through its own exchanger to capture heat or cold, and reject its hot or cold surpluses in a parallel loop itself connected to the post from the eco-neighborhood. The demonstrator will exchange its surplus energy to the sea through the main exchanger, while the water of the inner loop to the eco-neighborhood will retain its original temperature.

Buildings

Under the Mediterranean Green Building Label, priority is given to Mediterranean bioclimatic architectural design approach according to the principles of Energitecture®, with the use of local ecological materials selected based on the life cycle analysis, environmental and health impacts generated by the construction processes and the overall cost.

Under the partnership with Eiffage Constructions & Bioresources, several job leads of biobased materials are under consideration to ensure the insulation of buildings Neighborhood rice straw or recycled cotton lavender from the textile industry or even wood fiber.

The choice of a low carbon concrete reduce the share of cement contained in the concrete, and therefore its overall environmental impact. Thus, all the facades of office of the block A will be made with this type of concrete, which for this building a total of 850 m3 of low carbon concrete.

In a perspective-control health risks, 100% of paints and adhesives are eco-labeled and VOC A +.
