Urban Beat - WY-TO



Urban Beat WY-TO





The main idea of this project is to extend the area of the family home. Indeed, the client has inherited the house from her grandfather and prefers remaining living inside to keep alive the memories of the family. The History continues with the next generations now inhabiting the house.Following the current trends in France as well as the Parisian Exhibition “Roof on Roof” in 2015, the process of adding a new floor to an existing structure is certainly contrasting with the Tabula Rasa. Indeed, it becomes a tool for contemporary urban densification while being deeply rooted in the past. It is certainly a respectful but also sustainable approach that WY-TO is developing here as well as other similar projects.

The extension has a simple but expressive shape. Two blocks of different sizes are covered with wooden cladding, each using a different essence: poplar and pine. This abstract graphic composition resembles an Urban Beat that echoes in a respectful dialog the proportions of the immediate neighbors. From outside, the simplicity and sobriety of the facade unravels itself inside as rich and subtle.Images and text via
