The existing building is an 18th century farm that needed to be reconverted into collective housing. In the barn, it was asked to provide a multifunctional space. Despite its derelict state, the existing complex is a local landmark and considered patrimonial heritage. It therefore has to be renovated respecting strict regulations.
The proposal consists in providing 2 back-to-back homes that each benefit from their own private outdoor space. In between the 2 homes, there is a garage. The barn has a separate entrance and can host various activities.
