Ville d'Avray: an exceptional residence where nature and architecture merge
The new residents will live within the forest. Neighbors and passersby will be able to see it extend across the road.

At the historic entrance of Ville d'Avray, along Versailles Street, an exceptional residential project is reinventing the art of living in harmony with the State Forest of Fausses Repose. This bold architectural achievement, located at number 229, demonstrates a strong commitment to creating a unique dialogue between built environment and nature, thus perpetuating the heritage of a city that, since the Middle Ages, has cultivated a privileged relationship with its natural environment.
An architecture that enhances its natural environment

The project stands out for its innovative approach to landscape integration. The architects designed two buildings strategically positioned in natural clearings, framed by two vegetated passages that create a genuine "green corridor" between the two parts of the forest that the road had previously separated.
This composition not only preserves the north-south visual perspectives but also offers residents and passersby an immersive experience in the heart of nature.The facades, designed down to the smallest detail, feature indentations that delicately extend into the green spaces, thus multiplying glazed surfaces and creating a dynamic architectural rhythm. This pursuit of natural light is reflected in generous bay windows, deep balconies, and accessible planted terraces, allowing future residents to live in direct connection with the surrounding canopy.

A contemporary design rooted in local history

The project's aesthetics elegantly combines modernity and tradition. The decidedly contemporary facades are enhanced by architectural elements that pay tribute to Ville d'Avray's rich heritage. The buildings' crowning features elegant light brick friezes, striated with glazed lines both horizontal and vertical, reminiscent of the ornamentation found in 19th-century historic villas.
This attention to detail is also reflected in the ironwork elements of the entrance halls, which perpetuate the local tradition of wrought iron craftsmanship. The halls stand out with their generous dimensions and artistic ironwork gates, creating majestic entrances worthy of the finest residences.

A perfect symbiosis between modern comfort and nature

This exemplary achievement perfectly demonstrates the possibility of designing contemporary housing that respects its environment. The apartments, flooded with natural light thanks to ingenious architectural design, offer breathtaking views of the surrounding forest.
The planted terraces, accessible at different levels, create a natural extension of living spaces, while the private ground-floor gardens blend harmoniously into the landscape. The omnipresent vegetation literally envelops the buildings on all four facades, creating a unique green setting where the boundary between interior and exterior fades, offering residents an exceptional living experience at the gates of Paris.
