suiteselecta: Cummunity garden at “Place au Changement”, Saint-Étienne, France. Collectif ETC, has designed a 670m2 public space in Saint-Ètienne, wich has been build by their own inhabitants during this summer. Beyond others, it includes a carpentry workshop to build urban furniture, and a garden workshop to design the shared urban garden displayed in the site. At the intersection of two streets, the site was formerly a wasteland. Answering the on-going urban changes in the neighborhood, the project simulates a first step of the process in which a building is designed and built. The idea is to represent the plan of imaginary housings on the ground and their section on the wall. Now people can imagine living in the future buildings and get an idea of the impact of the real one that should be built in a couple of years (…) A water tank is available and local people had the initiative to keep taking care of the garden themselves and organize regular events. The furniture is not damaged, the place is well maintained and the inhabitants decided to name it “Place of the Giant” after the large painting made by artists Ella&Pitr. It is now an important element in the neighborhood, a place that neighbors identify to.” via archdaily More info, videos and photos here.  suiteselecta: Cummunity garden at “Place au Changement”, Saint-Étienne, France.
