Bellevue II — The representation

This project deals with the representation of an architectural project, here Bellevue II, a social housing estate
composed of serial houses which immediately remind Modern architecture of the 1930. After a meeting with
C. Blachot, the architect, I realized that a lot of documents as well as drafts, SketchUp & Photoshop renderings
were produced before the construction of the architectural project whereas it didn't exist any pictures of the
project after the construction, except few photos taken by the architect himself for his website.

So I decided to imagine, though graphic design tools, what could be my own representation of this new project.
I employed architect's material and softwares to create a serie of posters (A, B, C, D) et a model (E) which spread
various information around this new social housing estate.
Photography, which is the technique the most used to give a representation of a built project, is replaced by this
system which contains texts, quotations, blueprints, renderings and give a global view of the project at different
scales.
