This exploration should make it possible to create a living space also for humans by meeting their physiological needs such as controlling pollutants in the air, maintaining a temperature adapted to humans and the physiological needs related to a hotel room (rest, care, shelter).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Our study of the site includes a close attention to winds, noise, humidity and the two existing constructions. It is on this basis that we form our first lines of thought to find the most suitable form to shelter a hotel room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The only resources used in this project are the resources on site and the resources that we can grow between now and the varnishing. This encourages us to build in a certain way, to protect from the cold, to renew the air, to bring light, to allow us to sleep in an ergonomic way. These resources are very limited and must be used as meticulously as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can construction not be extractivist?
