The round tables entitled " Contemporary Practices in Architecture: Questions and Answers " explore contemporary issues in the profession that arise from the HMONP training program atENSA Normandie.

For the 2025 session, the theme of the round table will be "Rehabilitation of 20th century concrete heritage".

The rehabilitation of concrete buildings dating from the 20th century represents a major challenge today, both in terms of the size of the existing building stock to be renovated and the questions raised by adapting it to new thermal requirements and preserving its heritage qualities. The round table will provide an opportunity to discuss the contributions of architects
to the production, sharing and dissemination of knowledge on the subject.

Speakers:

- Isabelle Genyk & Guillaume Duranel: Table moderation
- Clémence Poitevin: ADE certified in 2025

Conference - "Objects - Resources

Monday, September 8, 2025 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. - Jean Duminy Amphitheatre - France

Conference by Côme Rollin, Olivier Thomas and Mathieu Volkovitch, Amor Immeuble

"[...] The Amor Immeuble group of architects is concerned with the material conditions of the world as it is: fragmented, senseless, saturated by the innumerable objects we produce but, above all, discard. Their awareness of the inexorable scarcity of raw materials is matched by a vertigo in the face of unsuspected deposits of repressed things,
[...] "Resource objects" rather than "found objects", they are less one-offs than series, indicative not of scarcity but of the bygone abundance of our modern, industrial past. [...] At a distance from current doctrines of reuse, recycling or up-cycling, which often reduce resources to their mere technical performance with a view to their exploitation, Amor Immeuble's proposals combine the poetic and political, cultural and aesthetic dimensions of the fragments they manipulate in order to release their full architectural power."

Exhibition - Le Laboratoire Maxime Old: when our students reinvent furniture at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen

Until January 5, 2026, Rouen's Musée des Beaux-Arts is hosting a major exhibition dedicated to Maxime Old, an architect, cabinetmaker and decorator renowned for his emblematic contributions to the city. This retrospective highlights his work and influence in the field of decorative arts.

An innovative partnership with the École nationale supérieure d'Architecture de Normandie

In parallel, the S6 Situation workshop, led by Sophie Cambrillat, Dominique Lefrançois and Kacha Legrand, engaged 3rd-year students in an original project: to design furniture inspired by the work of Maxime Old, adapted to the museum's contemporary uses. The furniture created questions postures, interactions and uses in a public museum space.

Modular creations to rethink the museum as a living space

The students imagined modular, flexible pieces - chairs, sofas, drawer units - that promote conviviality, equality of speech and invite discovery. Inspired in particular by the African palaver chair, this furniture invites a renewed museum experience, where space becomes a place for exchange and sharing.

"Le Laboratoire Maxime Old

The museum offers "Le Laboratoire Maxime Old," a dedicated space displaying furniture, models, and documents from its collaboration withENSA Normandie. This laboratory invites visitors to rethink the museum's functions through the lens of student creativity and the dialogue between past and present.

Teaching team: Sophie Cambrillat (architect), Dominique Lefrançois (sociologist) and Kacha Legrand (visual artist)
Student team: Hippolyte Alix, Arthur Bossard, Fannie Cabrespine, Tessa Debas, Onésime Doffagne, Axelle Donnet, Margot Gaillard, Camille Giraudon, Baptiste Harang, Zoé Joseph Dit Choisnard, Axel Laguerre, Louis Lanier, Clémence Martin, MERGAULT Charlotte Mergault, Camille Navarro, Thibaut Peuvrel, Lujin Sahloul, Corentin Terzi
