WAO RESOURCES CENTRE MADE OF REUSED MATERIAL FOR THE SALVATION ARMY OASIS


The Oasis resource centre


As part of the Oasis project championed by REI Habitat and la SemPariSeine, winners of the second “Réinventer Paris” competition, the old Musée de la Libération located on the site of the Jardin de l’Atlantique is soon to be the site of a variety of new uses. In keeping with the natural process of transient urbanism that shapes our cities more and more, the Armée du Salut is to occupy the ground floor of the west aisle of the museum to open a temporary recovery centre. The multidisciplinary architecture agency WAO is proud to have designed this pragmatic and circular project of interior refurbishment. Committed to waste reduction and virtuous design, we have made every effort to get the most out of the existing site and the opportunities it offered.
