Shapes of the sea drive design centre

Article Abstract:

The PSA Peugeot Citroen design centre sits like an ocean liner above the RN118 at VelizyVillacoublay to the south-west of Paris. This is a place where stylists, engineers, modelmakers, coachbuilders, and technicians create the future Citroens and Peugeots and a place where sketch designs are turned into models, which are turned into full-size clay mock-ups, and finally paraded on whichever bit of rooftop is available.

Briar Hill nursery

Article Abstract:

The original plan for Briar Hill nursery was simple considering childlike colored blocks as functional volumes comprising a core and peripheral pods. The building completed by Peter Haddon & Partners became more complex during its completion with features including exigencies of a tight site and existing trees and internally strict space.
