constructiontech Value proposition
[Automatic translation follows] The Brenac and Gonzalez Architecture studio was founded in the 1980s by Xavier Gonzalez and Olivier Brenac, who graduated from the Paris-Belleville School of Architecture and the École Spéciale d’ Architecture respectively.
It now has three additional partners, Jean-Pierre Lévêque, Emmanuel Person and Guillaume Maréchaux, and around forty employees.
///
It tackles all types of programs: housing, facilities, offices, hospitals, urban planning, etc.
What is striking when looking at the agency’s output is the liberation from all dogma in favor of a pragmatic attitude.
Positions have been freed up, architectural writing has freed itself from all affiliation and all prohibitions. There is no longer transgression but combinatorial play. Projects are made from processes whose parameters linked to contexts, sites, clients, programs, financing, desire for experimentation – all constitute determining factors in aesthetic choices.
///
Architecture becomes a strategy, an autonomous process, a "custom-made" free of any a priori, that the sole search for coherence unites; it supports a story.
Building 270 in Aubervilliers, the MO7 block on rue du Chevaleret, the hotel school on boulevard Raspail in Paris, the BNP tower, the Boucicaut housing or those of Ulisses, the eco-district of Ile Saint-Denis, the Toulouse-Blagnac offices or those, BEPOS of Châtenay, Algeco... these last projects and achievements are urban, programmatic, architectural, constructive or environmental equations.
Behind the displayed rigor exists a freedom to think about the project, to define its architectural expression, to work on its plastic and a real pleasure of doing, visible in the almost obsessive control of details and their realization.

L’atelier d’ Architecture Brenac et Gonzalez a été fondé au cours des années 80 par Xavier Gonzalez et Olivier Brenac issus respectivement de l’Ecole d’architecture de Paris-Belleville et de l’École Spéciale d’ Architecture.
Elle compte aujourd’hui trois partenaires supplémentaires, Jean-Pierre Lévêque, Emmanuel Person et Guillaume Maréchaux, et une quarantaine de collaborateurs.
///
Elle aborde tous les types de programmes : logements, équipements, bureaux, hospitaliers, urbanisme, etc.
Ce qui frappe en regardant la production de l’agence, c’est l’affranchissement de tout dogme au profit d’une attitude pragmatique.
Les positions se sont libérées, l’écriture architecturale s’est dégagée de toute appartenance et de tout interdit. Il n’y a plus transgression mais jeu combinatoire. Les projets se fabriquent à partir de processus dont les paramètres liés aux contextes, sites, clients, programmes, financement, volonté d’expérimentation – constituent autant de facteurs déterminants des choix esthétiques.
///
L’architecture devient stratégie, processus autonome, un «sur mesure» libre de tout à priori, que la seule recherche de cohérence fédère ; elle soutient un récit.
Le bâtiment 270 à Aubervilliers, l’îlot MO7 rue du Chevaleret, le lycée hôtelier boulevard Raspail à Paris, la tour BNP, les logements de Boucicaut ou ceux des Ulisses, l’éco-quartier de l’Ile Saint-Denis, les bureaux de Toulouse-Blagnac ou ceux, BEPOS de Châtenay, Algeco... ces derniers projets et réalisations sont des équations urbaines, programmatiques,architecturales, constructives ou environnementales.
Derrière la rigueur affichée existe une liberté de penser le projet, de définir son expression architecturale, de travailler sa plastique et un réel plaisir du faire, visible dans le contrôle presque obsessionnel des détails et de leur réalisation.
