Lot F Residence
young workers

ANMA is the architect and landscape designer for Lot F, an island on the banks of the Deûle River within the new Quai 22 district, for which the agency is also chief urban planner. The project will provide a comfortable, well-kept living environment for young professionals, who will move into the 228 homes in spring 2027. This residence of 4 buildings is equipped with numerous amenities – cafeteria, laundry, fitness room, bicycle rooms, coworking facilities… – and features a variety of housing typologies, all conscientiously designed: double-oriented living rooms, through-housing, houses with water views…

The parking lots are invisible, but not buried: integrated into the DDR of the various buildings, they are covered by business premises that enliven the main courtyard and quays. On the first level, the heart of the block features a generous 1,400 m² hanging garden, a place to meet – terrace, shared vegetable garden – and relax. This slab-based landscape features soil thicknesses ranging from 30cm (minimum) to 1m (mounds) to allow generous shrub planting.

LOT F Architectural diversity

Within the ZAC, this complex stands out for its great aesthetic diversity. Each building has its own style, with its own color scheme, facade rhythm and materials, all designed with architectural homogeneity, guided by attention to detail and rich composition.

Building A, furthest north, is distinguished by its negatively-worked facades with olive-colored ribbed matrix. The houses in Building B, along the Deûle, are timber-framed. To the south, Building C is clad in red brick slabs edged with white woodstain – typical of the existing houses on the site. Finally, Building D, which runs alongside the main courtyard, is sequenced with grey brick veneers, glazes and sandblasted concrete.

Lot I mixed program
and garden on slab

To the south of Quai 22, lot I is the largest of the ZAC: it breaks with the general grid of lots, being the only one not aligned along the new main thoroughfare. It is bordered to the north by an area earmarked for a future multimodal interchange, and to the west by Rue Sadi Carnot, which will accommodate a tramway line. To the east, it faces a park offering views of the wider landscape and the river Deûle, and to the south, a dense fringe of protected vegetation, sandwiched between the new buildings and an old railroad line.

This large 1.3-hectare plot of land is ideal for a mixed-use development with the feel of a micro-neighborhood: housing, offices, shops, restaurants and a medical center encircle the block, interacting with the future public spaces to create a large green space at its heart. The architectural diversity of Lot I reflects that of its program, with each building designed according to a volumetry and materiality specific to its activity and urban location.

Lot I landscapes for a variety of uses

The project is crossed by a pedestrian and landscaped pathway that opens up the project and connects Rue Sadi Carnot to the park on the banks of the Deûle. From this path, hanging planted gardens follow one another across the volumes of the various programs, offering walkers a lively crossing that’s a source of coolness in summer.

As for lot F, the 30cm of soil on the slab imposed by the Lille Bas Carbone Pact on the scale of the ZAC is the lowest common denominator of a landscape on slab with topography, designed by the agency, made up of mounds up to 1m high favoring the development of shrubs and cradles of biodiversity. Inaccessible wooded gardens, a calming garden for active populations, a student garden or even a neighbor’s garden, each of these plant environments is meticulously designed to invite use, care and maintenance.
