France’s 100% Vercors wood construction project by Atelier PNG

The eco-site is a technical infrastructure intended for the sustainable management of local resources and waste linked to the plateau's forestry activity of Vercors Regional Natural Park

by Georgina Johnston 25 March 2021 Sustainable Buildings

The main activity on this remote valley is related to silviculture. The new equipment is an additional tool, a facility expected to improve work conditions and the difficulty of daily tasks through an efficient, warm and generous building. The project consists of a main technical volume (a transfer dock for waste treatment and garages) as well as servant domestic volumes gathering the offices and workshops. The request is also to promote a common resource, wood from local forests.

Located on the fringe of the forest, as close as possible to the stumps, the construction is designed and dimensioned based on the available timber species, tools and local savoir-faire. Logs cut last year dry out, in the shade of the trees still standing. They are debited and transformed on site to be later used by all trades.
