Today we would like you to get into de LRS Architectes project, the Coupe Gordon-Bennet, which explores the notion of town planning in a peripheral zone through a morphology of courtyard buildings which blurs the boundaries between the architectural object and the urban fabric.

The realisation of the entire project is the outcome of an innovative cooperation between 3 prize-winning architectural practices and this collective approach seeks to achieve a strong and coherent identity for this new district, while at the same time creating a wide range of public spaces, ambiences and typologies.
