In Strasbourg-Deux Rives, under the leadership of Dominique Coulon & Associés (France), HHF (Switzerland), and Tatiana Bilbao (Mexico), 20,000 m² of offices and over 200 fully reversible housing units will activate the banks of the Vauban basin in the heart of Strasbourg’s Port du Rhin starting in 2021.
Winners of the competition launched in spring 2017 by SPL Deux-Rives, developers Kaufman & Broad and Stradim have committed to fully reversible programs, pushing the goals of mixed-use development to the maximum. As a result, no building is mono-functional, and all can transform from one use to another.
In charge of the editorial direction for this project, AHA notably produced a film that captivated the jury by placing the architects at the heart of Starlette. A star is born.
If you want, I can also make a more fluid, magazine-style English version that emphasizes the visionary and innovative aspects of the project. Do you want me to do that?
