Mati\u00e8re grise<\/a> exhibition at the Pavillon de l’Arsenal in Paris<\/span><\/span> from 26th September 2014 until 4th january 2015
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The Pavillo<\/a>n de l’Arsenal<\/a> in Paris is currently presenting Mati\u00e8re grise<\/a>,\u00a0<\/span>an exciting exhibition.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You will find 75 buildings, which are to architecture, what French toast is to baking : delicious projects which makes the best of leftovers.<\/p>\n

These buildings where build with very special materials. Not materials you’ll find in catalogues, no, no. Materials which wouldn’t be used anymore, or which already have been used, and some which had nothing to do with building. This inventive project couldn’t have come about without brilliant and creative architects who have found the right resources at the right time.<\/p>\n
