“Promoting the inclusion and utility of retirees as actors in a changing world, creators of intergenerational connections and promoters of economic, social, and solidarity activities at the local level” – this is the mission of Thank You Max. The Thank You Max app connects people in need of a service with “Max” from their neighbourhood, a friendly and dynamic retiree living nearby who enjoys helping their neighbours.
The goal: to develop a new concept of collaborative and sustainable neighbourhood life, led by retirees from the neighbourhood, while developing the creation of economic, social, and solidarity activities!
Congratulations on this great initiative.

Maud Caubet spoke yesterday at the seminar “Long Live Housing!: Transforming the existing in line with climate challenges” organized by the CAUEs of Île-de-France and the DRAC Île-de-France, on the occasion of the presentation of the work of the CAUE Observatory of Île-de-France.
This day of exchanges and sharing of experiences made it possible to address two very important subjects: rehabilitation and housing quality for all. A great opportunity for Maud Caubet Architects to present, alongside Iain Hutton, the ongoing work she’s leadinf on the site of the Château de Levallois-Perret: the restructuring of a maternity hospital into a building of housing units near a historical monument, the Hospice Richard Wallace
As ALTEV’s arrival within the REDMAN Group was announced, Julie Le Bolzer painted the portrait of Nicolas Ponson, co-founder of REDMAN, a low-carbon developer, a mission-driven company, certified as BCorp. Since 2007, Nicolas Ponson and his partner Matthias Navarro have shaped REDMAN into a force for change, with a clear vision: the development of low-carbon urban projects with a strong transformational lever.
His recent activity demonstrates REDMAN’s commitment this year to further strengthen its dedication to rehabilitation rather than construction for a future with low environmental impact and high social impact, which the group intends to develop with its peers. “Everyone needs it, but no company can do it alone… especially if it doesn’t dare,” emphasizes Nicolas Ponson.

While office and residential assets are going through turbulent times, the hotel real estate sector is holding steady and not only in anticipation of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Several long-term trends are indeed driving this sector: the lack of short and long-term accommodations, the strategic role of hotels open to their neighbourhoods in revitalizing city centers, and the permanent establishment of telecommuting leading to an increasing demand for hybrid forms of rental housing, as stated by Jean-Marc Palhon, Chairman of EXTENDAM, to Laurence Boccara for Les Echos Week-End.
Un délice d’initiés to be found in Les Echos Week-end!
The Redman Group is adding Altev’s real estate expertise to accelerate real estate rehabilitation and urban regeneration. Founded five years ago by Adrien Long and Anne-Laure Camilotto, Altev has developed more than fifteen rehabilitation and/or conversion operations for housing, offices, hotels, or managed residences. REDMAN thus confirms the strategic priority given by the group to intensify its activity towards asset conversion, expanding the scope of its interventions both in terms of building size and location, and establishing itself as a key player in this market.
“Given the climate emergency and the imperatives of environmental transition, urban regeneration emerges as a major challenge for the real estate sector,” emphasizes Matthias Navarro, co-founder of Redman.

Maud Caubet architects agency will present the Racine project through the unique exhibition “Architects and Engineering 2050”!
In the heart of the 12th arrondissement of Paris, the Racine Tower project transforms the former headquarters of the Office National des Forêts (ONF) and will offer, by mid-2024, a new life to this iconic building from the 1970s. This building, with a singular appearance, has its facade completely renovated and its roof is topped with a panoramic glass greenhouse, as an extension towards the sky.
A project perfectly anchored in its neighbourhood, working with what is already there.
See you on February 6th at the Carrousel du Louvre for the occasion!
Located near the iconic tourist sites of the region, the 3-star, 70-room hotel will undergo refurbishment and compliance works to meet the hotel needs of both leisure and business clientele.

With their degree in spatial design, designers Koen Meerkerk and Hugo de Boon use their talents to serve a cause close to their hearts by launching Fruitleather Rotterdam, an initiative that offers an innovative solution to food waste. Transforming mango fibers into vegan leather, the company offers an ecological alternative to the traditional leather industry.
Raising awareness about food waste, Fruitleather Rotterdam targets the 45% of fruits destined for consumption that are discarded annually. At the same time, the leather industry, generating 10% of all global carbon emissions, faces the issues of animal slaughter and material cleaning processes.
Fruitleather Rotterdam’s innovative approach considers fruit waste as a valuable raw material, resulting in a versatile material used in the production of shoes, fashion accessories, furnishings, and more.
🍃 Let’s fight food waste and give a second life to forgotten mangoes!
Thank you for this beautiful initiative!
