In collaboration with the French practices of Nicolas Laisné and Dimitri Roussel, the Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto has won the international contest to built a mixed-use development in Rosny-sous-Bois, 18 kilometers from the center of Paris. Named Village Vertical, the complex will rise 50 meters and have a wooden structure 120 meters long. The huge stepped volume will feature glass facades and numerous terraces.
