Ce projet est une réponse originale aux enjeux de densité urbaine, et propose un habitat individuel en brique rouge de hauteur d'étage qui lui donne une forte identité.
Deux formes architecturales constituent cet ensemble : un bâtiment collectif (R+5 avec maisons sur le toit) de couleur blanche s'intègre au gabarit de la rue et s'accole en alignement à l'immeuble mitoyen ; à l'arrière, des venelles distribuent des maisons individuelles en bandes aux silhouettes variées. La brique de hauteur d'étage structurelle permet une pérennité des matériaux et un confort thermique amélioré. La plupart des maisons disposent d'une cave et sont directement accessibles depuis leur box de parking. Elles profitent de terrasses aménagées ou végétalisées (permettant une gestion optimisée des eaux pluviales) et d'un jardin arrière et avant. Les logements sont tous traversants et offrent une très grande variété typologique. Ofis Arhitekti — Tetris Apartments. Jean-Baptiste Pietri Architectes — Carre Seine.
