Dessin et Construction

Architects: Dessin et Construction

Description: DESSIN ET CONSTRUCTION is an interprofessional office in the fields of architecture, engineering and urban design and planning.
Competent and active in all 3 fields, our office purposefully favors studies and projects encompassing several of these dimensions.
We can put forward references in urban planning, public spaces and landscape urbanism, mobility, industrial sites regeneration, building and rehabilitating housing associations, shops, offices and arty pieces of work.
We are particularly intrested in the various issues highlighted by territorial programs and contexts.
Notions such as « Trace » understood as a territory’s inheritance or a «City» as life premises in regards to societal needs, and «Landscape» linked to a collective environment are crucial and at the heart of our interventions.
We pay great attention to our responsibility towards the natural and human environment. The way we choose our materials, the way we use building techniques as well as solidarity and managerial economy highlights our aim to reach a balance between tradition and modernity.
Exploiting the specific potential of every material structurally, texturally and colorfully speaking is at the core of our projects.
Finally, we pay special attention to the implication of every stakeholder in the project process: including the project manager as well as the contractors as direct actors but also civil society through various participative processes.
