“Atmospheres of the sin” comes from an intense phenomenological and urban analysis of the context of\u00a0Bordeaux city, where we add a field of personal experimentation regarding the French culture of\u00a0seduction and transgression. This context provides many references of the notion of “TheTemple”, a\u00a0concept where we can dive into a new semantic and formal game, therefore creating a new hybrid.<\/p>\n

Based on these insights, a new path is opened for development of all these cultural layers by identifying a\u00a0careless space built from a few Second World War submarine hangars, with a large-scale. The submarine\u00a0base of Bordeaux is in the harbour of Bassin \u00e0 Flot; which rehabilitation, like one more piece inside the\u00a0city, is the end of an urban regeneration, which concerns the river Garonne and that has turned Bordeaux\u00a0into a “Urban laboratory “.<\/p>\n

It is precisely this large-scale space the one that assembles a very “French sensibility” for large projects.\u00a0We play with it deliberately, to introduce later a small experiences program with spectacles from nomadic\u00a0urban interventions. These interventions are moved using barges. “Barges of the sin” are lodged in the\u00a0hangars in winter, and also provide them scenic content. Thus, the project is constructed in three scales,\u00a0with the rehabilitation of the Submarine Base as a hinge of the project.<\/p>\n

Using these three strategies, a piece with a historical relevant content for the city is recovered; a rejected\u00a0building for many inhabitants and which demolition has been under consideration. For its intervention, it\u00a0was necessary to create the planimetries of the ruin because there were no previous plans. A constructive\u00a0hypothesis allowed us to generate rehabilitation criteria that emphasize the building’s value, with an\u00a0ephemeral intervention whose disappearance would not suppose any ruin damage.<\/p>\n
