On a site made up of 11 buildings — some under safety hazard orders — Financière Saint James and REDMAN, in collaboration with DATA ARCHITECTES and THINK TANK architecture, carried out a large-scale transformation as part of a real estate development contract: over 10,000 sqm combining offices, social housing, and shops, in the 10th arrondissement of Paris.

For Business Immo, Nicolas Decloquement (Deputy CEO of REDMAN), Gregory Zeitoun (Director of Financière Saint James), and Colin Reynier (co-founder of DATA ARCHITECTES) revisit this flagship operation, conducted with a focus on reuse and sustainability. The project was conducted hand in hand with the City of Paris through a negotiated urban planning approach to meet both current and future needs of the neighborhood.

🔎 This complex project anticipates the principles of Paris’s future bioclimatic local urban plan (PLU).

💬 “We reimagined the investor/developer relationship by going beyond legal and contractual considerations, choosing instead to share both challenges and successes with agility over the long term” — Nicolas Decloquement, Deputy CEO of REDMAN
