Rendu Fabrique S07 - The Nature of Large Projects

Twelve students from the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Normandie decided to reflect on the question of nature and ecology in the city - a question that is in the air at the moment - with the idea of going beyond stereotypes: isn't ecology applied everywhere in the same way? Hence the desire of the students and their teacher (a sociologist) to meet with inhabitants with the idea of gathering new ideas or ways of thinking or living the subject - young people, women, mothers, pupils of literacy classes were interviewed for example.

Is nature necessarily against concrete? The district of Hauts de Rouen, where the surveys were conducted, known above all for its towers, bars and slab or asphalt, is nonetheless planted on the edge of a forest. Can it not be put at the forefront of an ecological issue that seems, today, to be the sole concern of more central neighborhoods? The students will share their investigations with you, during a debate on Thursday, December 15 at 4pm at the André Malraux Center.
