Paris-Saclay Campus - Quartier de Moulon
Retrouver le territoire sur le plateau de Saclay et redonner sens aux aménagements urbains, tel est l'enjeu de notre intervention démarée en 2017, pour servir le projet de la ZAC de MOULON
The first public spaces were created with particular attention to urban comfort thanks to the plant and hydraulic connection between the cultivated plateau and its wooded edge.
The Yvette's valley and the plateau: a territorial unit
Reinforce the continuity between valley and plateau
An old framework reactivated
Carte des Chasses du Roi, XVIIIth century, scale 1/28 000

Ongoing territorial whole
Two connected entities: City and University
The terrace and the belvedere path offer one of the most beautiful point of view on the Yvette valley
Reinforce and rank the North-South framework
The North-South axis cross the plateau and continue as many continuities with the valley
Hydraulic continuities and runoff water storage
Plants continuity with the edge vocabulary
Pedestrian / cycles continuities
Soils continuity
Urban continuity and discontinuity of the plateau - the main figures and the East-West framework
Chain of neighborhoods and main public spaces
Forecourt of the École Nationale Supérieure
Consolidate the East-West framework of the main public spaces
The edges, ways to think the city - The grid as project

An urban grid meshed and connected to the territory
Strengthen the grid morphology with closed islets and open it to the geography
Water in the heart of public spaces
