The Babel Community - Coliving Residence / D'HOUNDT+BAJART Architectes&associés
Located in the heart of a Lille business district developed around forty years ago, the Babel Community coliving residence is part of a broader process of urban and environmental regeneration. The project involves the transformation of a site formerly occupied by obsolete and energy-inefficient office buildings. In their place now stands a 304-room hospitality residence complemented by a wide range of services and shared amenities, conceived as a new living environment within an area historically dedicated to tertiary activities.
