Maison Garches

Rehabilitation and Reinforcement of Structures project of a single-family villa in Paris. The ambitions of mirrored volumetry in the Architecture project have brought challenges in the design of the necessary reinforcements and new structural elements, either by the confinement of the lot or by the small space available. Thus, much of the work was developed in person as the existing structure and structural model of a building from the 1950s were inspected. Resulted reinforcement solutions in metal structure, concrete elements in new volumes to be built, reinforcement of foundations and reinforcement of existing wood structures respecting the initial structural solution.
