Project life
A new natural and landscaped area for the Cité des Musiciens
To transform these deconstructed spaces, a program of
renaturation will be deployed, following the creation of mounds on gently sloping mounds.
Each plot will be completely revegetated to restore nature’s full nature its rightful place. Green spaces :
- A 1,500 m² flower meadow will be laid out in front of the homes, providing plant diversity that will also benefit pollinators.
- On the periphery, wide grassed ditches will encourage the infiltration of rainwater.
- The slopes will be planted with groves of trees and shrubs, accompanied by country hedges to reinforce the unity of the landscape. Plants will be of certified local origin.
- One of the plots could be used for ecopasturing.
