La Vrillette l ENSA Paris-La-Villette
La Vrillette is the laureate project in 2018 of a contest that takes place in the ENSA Paris-La-Villette, the biggest architecture school in Paris. Organized within the course named ?Tectonic Sculpture? by Marc LEYRAL and Frédéric MARTINET, the contest promotes a reflection about the use of short-sized timber section elements to create full-scale experimental structures.

This year, the project of Damien FREGEFOND and Clément BERTHOUD has been constructed on an exceptional site, the rooftop of the City of Fashion and Design of Paris. Originally designed to be constructed inside the architecture school of Paris-La Villette, this structure had the privilege to be constructed on one of the finest places of design in Paris.

The project is constructed with steam-bent wood. This constructive technic has required the design and the manufacture of specific tools; a steam hoven and a bending machine that allows producing an infinity of different curves. Its architecture is inspired by structural elements of the gardens of the renaissance period, the vegetated wood lattice. This pattern creates a generous organic volume directed towards the sky.
