[ JDS architects ] 'M6B1' student housing, paris

JDS architects have designed 'M6B1' - student housing in paris france. the site is located in a context that is in development. after fulfilling the required programming, the left over square meters were unfolded creating a spiral for social activities linking the ground floor to the roof terrace.  considering the exterior of the building as generic as possible to respond to its unknown context, JDS decided to populate the inside of the social spiral with elements
normally found on the exterior façade of buildings: light fixtures, flower pots hanging by the window, all of which contributes to the common space of students.
