Re-Wiring La Grande Borne
An urbanism study of La Grande Borne in the South of Paris, the project is an attempt at revitalizing a grand ensemble through a sensitive reprogramming of existing protocols and a belief in urban vitalization through activation of program, circulation and interference. Relying on a working method of incisions, interjections, and additions without disrupting or abolishing the existing social contracts and mechanisms, the plan offers opportunities of evolvement and growth to the population.

Garage Tales
The residential garage, the little addendum to the typical (American) house, bears a significance that surpasses the simple purpose to shelter a car. In the 20th century, with the post-war advent of personal automobiles and the widespread installation of garages, the corporately nine-to-five working homeowner soon started to work on side projects, developed hobbies and created individual ambitions in this surprisingly variable space. Garage Tales illustrates the story of 14 projects whose founders originated in residential garages and describes home-made stories of success, adaptation and aspiration.
