The suspended house aims to respond to the desire of townspeople to reach nature and calm while still living in the city. The project consists of a light wooden structure erected above an existing garage. While the situation of a house with such a small plot without a garden is quite unwanted in this part of the Parisian suburbs, the project uses this lack as an opportunity to propose a new typology.
The windows are placed according to the surrounding trees of the neighborhood and the newly created garden in order to offer the feeling of being surrounded by nature. The trees and the subtle rays of light filtered through their leaves enable a silent atmosphere of calm to emerge in the perpetual movement of the city. In this sense, the project allows us to feel not only literally suspended from the ground, but also from the city and its intense rhythm.
