Corinne Vezzoni, Gold Medalist 2020 of the Academy of Architecture, to give a lecture at the Cité Radieuse !

We are pleased to announce this unprecedented event taking place in Marseille on February 26 : At the invitation of the Association of Residents of the Unité d’Habitation, the MAMO, a center dedicated to architecture and design, and in partnership with Architecture de Collection, Corinne Vezzoni will give a public lecture in this iconic site of modern history.

This metal warehouse, built at the end of the 19th century, was long considered a boundary between the city and the port. Corinne Vezzoni aims to transform it into a vibrant, open space that reconnects these two entities, while preserving its heritage value.

The “Le Phare” project, like many of the architect’s other works, reflects her deep connection to local culture, shaped during her six years of training at the École d’architecture de Marseille-Luminy. From the Phocaean city, where she established her firm in 2000, Corinne Vezzoni undertakes projects both in France and internationally, developing architecture that is attentive to users and the territory, with a constant commitment to contemporary environmental and societal challenges.
