60 residences, rue du Chevaleret, Paris 13, France, 2007

The building is designed as a volume carved in the mass consisting of a thick white mineral ceramic shell which articulates the angles. The object is hollow with window frames in gilded metal, gilded anodised joineriers are  detached from the white ceramic foreground, and panels panels of screening are made of a metal mesh. The gilded effect highlights the East-West orientation and gives the windows a precious character.
