DESIGN COMPOSITION
Commissioned by London-based real estate developer General
Projects, Jeuneville is envisioned as a vertical city with the aim
of reducing a low carbon footprint on the ground. Jean Nouvel's
unique project is centred on diversity and well-being and is
specifically designed for the new generations and the new
economy for Paris. Construction will begin in 2022 and is planned
to be completed in 2025; it will be built on the banks of the Seine,
opposite the Olympic and Paralympic Village, in the centre of a
new district in transition of Gennevilliers and the North Loop of
the Seine.
Jeuneville offers a diverse programme scattered in 12 floors,
the project will contain 45,000 sqm of offices, 26,000 sqm of
co-living space, 14,000 sqm of student residences - 5,000 sqm
dedicated to education, 4,000 sqm of maker / fab-lab spaces,
and 2,300 sqm of shops. The project also includes 30,000 sqm of
public and green spaces that will create a new kind of ecosystem
in which around 6,000 people will work and 1,500 will live.
“Jeuneville responds to the challenges of a metropolitan
context while being integrated into a territory bordering the
Seine, thanks to an architecture that is both mixed, evolving and
open to the outside,” said Jean Nouvel.
