A modern center for autonomy and inclusiveness of fragile people in the city of Paris. With it bayonet morphology, the site engaged us in a complex architectural exercise. The comfort of the occupants and their relationship with the city were our main concerns. The internal space for circulation ceases to be a “corridor” to become a “path”. The architecture seeks duality in the choice and application of materials. On the city side, the skin is made of fiber reinforced concrete of gray color, it shows a neutral appearance, discreet and perennial which gives an urban outfit to the building. On the patios side, the larch wood cladding, which does not require any maintenance, ensures a warm appearance at the sight of the inhabitants.
