Urban connections: upper & lower, past & present
Nestled in the city's historical area, Espace Trianon weaves new connections through the urban fabric of Liège. Designed on the traces of a historical alley, the project is articulated around a central esplanade that links the upper and lower parts of the city. To accentuate this connection, a visual breakthrough has been defined in the alignment of the new buildings on Boulevard de la Sauvenière, offering a view of the bell tower of the Saint-Martin basilica in the background.
The project consists of five residential buildings based on a 200 years old former ice house and a retaining wall, just a stone's throw from the Place de l'Opéra, Place Saint-Lambert and the Saint-Michel block. From studios to three-bedroom flats, all 68 units of various typologies are equipped with an outdoor space. A shared roof terrace, accessible to the owners, is also planned on top of one of the buildings.
After housing the Crosly cinema and the headquarters of the newspaper La Meuse more than a century ago, this plot steeped in history is now fully involved in the district's reactivation.
