Project located in the nineteenth district of Paris, near Ourcq - Jaurès, between the Canal de l'Ourcq and the Avenue Jean Jaures, along the Rue de l'Ourcq and the railroad of the small belt.

The site is characterized by, mainly, its high density and heterogeneity, it is divided into parcels for each student. Each parcel will host two housing types, the building and the townhouse.

The aim is to think on different issues such as juxtapositions, overlays, sharing, crossings lots, distributions, combinations, heights, relationships, contexts, adaptations, constraints...
