  • Built on the outskirts of Paris between 1978 and 1983, Les Espaces d’Abraxas and Les Arcades du Lac were an attempt by France to make architecturally adventurous social housing that inspired the creativity of their residents. Thirty-five years later, what’s life been like for the inhabitants of this uniquely Parisian social experiment?

    Not a single view of the inside of the building or what it's actually like living there. Could have done without the misleading title, NBC News.

    Those buildings were designed by Ricardo Bofill, a Spanish architect who also designed similar buildings in Montpellier, France.

    Wow, Fantastic. I've been to a few of these projects but some are too far away and I had limited time. I would have loved to see this one. Not all architecture has to be a bubbly happy luxurious gesture. These places have a strong impact. We can feel overpowered by a place but also co-exist with it spiritually

    Thank you for making our suburb look so amazing ! Especially when you know that few months ago they wanted to destroy our architectural heritage !

    When I worked at Disneyland Paris I lived there for a couple of months, on the top floors, they’re not actually flats they are two floors it was a very bizarre place like a film set but always seemed quiet coz it was so big

    Hermoso. Sencillamente hermoso. Notable. Me inspira mucha paz. Me gustaría ver el interior de los apartamentos...Pero la atmósfera que evoca es increíble.

    Whats interesting to me is when these people say they like to live there and do not want to move. Here in Malmö, where I live, everybody I know always wants to move to a bigger, nicer, more expensive place in a more attractive neighbourhood and sell their previous place at a profit.

    Good document :) but you didn't mentioned about the name of the author of these projects .It' s really important :/ I would be grateful ,if you could change that :) I am an architecture student and I really appreciate his creativeness.
