JDS and LPA Selected For A Paris Station

Together with JDS partner Louis Paillard Architecture they were selected to rethink the development of one of the emblematic new stations for the Grand Paris metro lines.

The location was at the junction of the two districts of Clichy Sous Bois and Montfermeil, notorious to have been the scenery of the 2005 riots which brought this part of Paris to light to the international media and have since been remembered as the epiphany of the urban social malaise. The station proposed would function as much as a square as it would as a station and engage the commuters with the local community in a multi-programmed and cross-cultural manner.
