Located in Lormont, on the right bank of Bordeaux, the Genicart district is a housing estate built in the sixties. In addition to restoring the buildings (Lan Architecture), the project proposes to create green ways, sporting equipments, traffic lanes and socializing sites in order to totally transform this district making it a contemporary car-free area.

A bit surprised that Schønherr calls its beautiful design an 'artistic decoration'. It boldly uses the space, puts the visitors directly in the centre and offers dynamic composition featuring interesting play of bright concrete surfaces and grass, pinned with trees. The design would appear even stronger if the pavement 'frame' by the building had been left out, so the grass would come closer to the facade. The facade would already act as the frame and the grass as a passe-partout. Probably this was not possible due to safety issues and emergency intervention access. By using simple tools, Schønherr designed an interesting space that offers a number of different possible experiences (hard / soft surfaces, edges, sun / shade ...).
