In the heart of Paris’s 10th arrondissement, REDMAN, Data Architectes, and Think Tank Architecture are working together to transform a historic block into a mixed-use space combining offices, social housing, and shops. Each building tells its story, with customized construction techniques preserving its authenticity while integrating modern elements.
Metal beams or wood, metal and thorn wood facades, wooden frameworks, reinforced concrete… a patchwork of materials and know-how illustrates REDMAN’s commitment to rethinking this ensemble with the utmost respect for Parisian urban planning.
Amélie Luquain recently explored the details of the flagship QG 206 Lafayette project with Vaqué Charles-Axel, REDMAN Program Director, Colin Reynier (Data Architectes), Marine De La Guerrande (Think Tank Architecture), Morgane Amiel, REDMAN Communication Director, and Annabelle Ledoux, Founder of Grandes Idées. This operation was carried out on behalf of Financière Saint James.
A great opportunity to discover the impressive details of this renovation blending rehabilitation and construction, recycled aggregates, and sustainable materials.

A welcome development for the French energy sector: in 2023, renewable energies crossed a symbolic threshold, accounting for over 30% of total electricity consumption. This represents a six-point increase from the previous year, revealing a positive trend towards greener and more sustainable energy.
This significant rise is largely attributed to the expansion of wind farms and solar installations across the country. With a 23% increase in renewable energy production, France confirms its commitment to the energy transition.
Although hydropower remains the primary source of renewable energy, wind and solar energy have also made notable advances. Offshore wind, in particular, now significantly contributes to national energy production.
This new energy reality is not uniform across the territory. Regions like Hauts-de-France and Nouvelle-Aquitaine stand out for their leadership in onshore wind and solar energy.
However, despite this progress, France still has a way to go to catch up with its European neighbors in renewable energy. With countries like Germany, Spain, and Portugal already surpassing thresholds of 50% or even 60%, France must intensify its efforts to accelerate its energy transition.
This achievement demonstrates the considerable potential of renewable energies in building a more sustainable and responsible energy future.
