Like a ribbon, each level folds and is superimposed on a level whose folds are alternated. It is also a way of generating extra space to provide more comfortable living spaces in the dwellings. In addition, the redans allowed to direct the views towards the street rather than to have a direct confrontation with the houses located on the other side of the street. The building is designed to be built in wood frame and be very energy efficient. The living areas of the dwellings are largely open on the south side and the overhangs on the front side become well oriented terraces. A penthouse set back on the roof enjoys a breathtaking view of the city and a vegetated terrace. Given the very specific program, the project was worked out so that these micro-dwellings are very easily manageable in the long term from an energy point of view. To do this, it was necessary to aim for autonomy and to limit the common organs but at the same time drastically limit losses. The building is therefore very low energy. The low coefficient of heat loss of the carrier material (solid laminated wood) comb
