In this new episode of Com d’Archi Podcast, we head to “Cœur Paris,” a project unveiled in January 2026, located in the former headquarters of the AP-HP, in the historic heart of the capital.
Winner of the “Réinventer Paris 3” call for projects, this 27,000 m² development will become, in 2028, the first “mission-driven building” in Paris.
On the program:
– rehabilitation of Haussmannian heritage,
– contemporary architectural additions,
– low-carbon transition,
– mixed uses: offices, social housing, social and solidarity economy (SSE), services and shops open to all.
Through this project, Com d’Archi explores a central notion: urban hospitality.
How can we repair in times of peace?
How can we inhabit buildings steeped in history in new ways?
And how much “heart” do we really put into shaping the city?
