During BATIMAT, held from 4 to 8 November 2019 at the Parc des Expositions of Villepinte, Maud Caubet has been invited by Stéphane Miget and Les Editions des Halles to talk about “Design and materiality on facades” on the set of Bati-Journal.tv. The interview highlights Maud Caubet Architects’ projects as well as another way to speak about design and construction materials or their arrangements for each support. Offices, residences and each space need  indeed to be worked for their own identity.

[BONI.D]  For a few years, Les Frigos Solidaires have spread in many French cities to provide supplies to the most deprived. The simplicity of the concept to share without wasting, ongoing on years, makes this initiative a true citizenship demonstration, based upon everyone’s humanity to operate. Les Grandes Idées wants to highlight this idea because if more than 22 “fair fridges” have been settled in France, many pools are currently open to found new ones everywhere! http:/bit.ly/32Gdg22

Investing alongside Hakim Gaouaoui for the strong development of Les Bistrots Pas Parisiens! this summer; investing with Mikael Benfredj and Jordan Chiche, founders of Patchwork, with the project of new offers of hospitality and services for corporate customers, in September; accompanying Leonid Goncharov in the evolution of the capital of Anticafé  in October… Extendam begins the second half of 2019 by reaffirming its support to a new generation of dynamic entrepreneurs revolutionizing the standards of their sectors, all intimately linked to the future of the hotel industry.

The fair accommodation by Karine Pathinvo and Anne Gestin
“The solution of bartering rooms allows parents and students to see the future more serenely by avoiding them to go into debt, and make choices that correspond to their real desires.”
Karine and Anne answer the students’ needs concerning accommodation by offering an economical and sustainable original solution, while helping to restore the social cohesion.

October 10-13, discover the Maud Caubet’s approach for the exhibition “Inside/Outside” at the 116th edition of the Autumn Show. Either for architecture or design, Maud Caubet wants to create a close relationship, a continuous dialog, between different scales, spaces and materials in a resilient and fluent way. Whether they are office buildings, housing, family homes or public facilities, these projects are read in relation to their immediate surroundings. Few days are left to visit the exhibition !

On September 26, the jury of the Duo@Work Prize awarded Maud Caubet with the Special Mention Award for its communicating, interactive and autonomous facade, the result of a beautiful collaboration with Exception for LiVE, winner project of Inventing Greater Paris 1 in Bagnolet. This prize highlights her will to innovate in architecture and thus to build new relationships with buildings. Composed of about 335 communicating scales, this facade wakes up the time of dawn and sunrise extending over the 35 m wide and 25 m height of the building. Congratulations to Maud Caubet, Exception and their teams as well as to all the players of the project !
