Fichtre is a Nantes-based studio made up of Thomas Cantin, Wilfrid Lelou and Frédéric Péchereau – all three of them architects, visual artists, and builders. For 20 years, Fichtre has been designing projects and manufacturing objects, paying close attention to how they will be used – uses that are often reappropriated, with pride of place given to the human body. The singularity of their approach lies halfway between architecture and handicrafts, art and design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Pursuing this idea of occupying space differently and inventing new sites for social interaction, Fichtre dreamt up Les Espaces Verts<\/em> for La Chapelle-sur-Erdre on the natural site of La Gandonni\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by the shape of this landscape \u2013 with the nearby Erdre River \u2013 Fichtre created a monochrome structure that embraces the contours of the river bank. This complex is made up of alignments with rows of cabins and a simple, minimalist form that is reminiscent of the kind of boat houses typically found in North American landscapes along the continent\u2019s shores and river banks.
Underneath Les Espaces Verts,<\/em> rocks mimic these artificial alignments and support the cabins in a system of raised foundations allowing the entire complex to play with the ground\u2019s natural lumps, offering new views of the Erdre Valley\u2019s vast and verdant landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fichtre is based in Nantes. The studio was founded in 2001.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<\/div><\/section>\n\t

Winner of the bid for the department of Loire-Atlantique’s sustainable tourism project “Inventons le tourisme”
\nFinanced by the town of la Chapelle-sur-Erdre. With the participation of le Voyage a Nantes, the department of Loire-Atlantique, and Nantes M\u00e9tropole.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\t
