Panoramic apartment

Located on a high floor, this crossing apartment has an area of 76.46 m2 LC.

Facing west, the living room of 28 m2 welcomes a lounge area, a dining room bathed in light by the large bay window opening onto a balcony and an independent kitchen.

Facing east, the night area includes two bedrooms of 13 m2 with built-in wardrobes as well as a bathroom and separate toilets.

A cellar completes this property.

It is possible to rent a parking space in the residence’s car park.

Overlooking the Japanese garden of the residence, the apartment is in absolute calm. 6 minutes walk from the station Marcel Sembat (line 9), the building enjoys a privileged environment with all the amenities of the Rue du Point du Jour in the immediate vicinity : schools, shops, supermarkets.

Built between 1957 and 1963, the Point-du-Jour residence was awarded the “20th century heritage” label in 2008. This complex of 2,260 dwellings, emblematic of the work of Fernand Pouillon, testifies to his search for harmony between a monumental building and enchanting green spaces. The architect wanted to allow the middle classes to live in accessible housing without restricting benefits.

The uniqueness of Pouillon’s work lies in the commitment that guides his projects, the bias towards stone at the expense of concrete, the development of a particular constructive system and an alternative operating method. In addition to the strategies implemented to make housing more accessible and significantly reduce construction costs, Pouillon is developing a high-quality building system consisting of a network of posts close enough together to avoid the use of beams, thus making the housing plans flexible and scalable.

Originally eccentric and landlocked, this former industrial district is now well served by transport and benefits from nearby school and sports facilities, such as those of the Île-Saint-Germain park. It benefits from a central location, which is further enhanced by the Grand Paris Express project, an automatic metro for the Grand Paris, which will further revitalize the whole area.

The architect and urban planner Fernand Pouillon (1912-1986) was one of the great builders of the years of reconstruction that followed the Second World War in France.

He built 50,000 housing units, equipment and public buildings in Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, the Paris region (residence of the park of Meudon-la-Forêt, 1957, the Point du Jour in Boulogne-Billancourt, 1957-1963), in Algeria as well as in Iran.

His creations are characterized by a harmonious insertion in the site, rigorous proportions, noble materials and the collaboration of sculptors, ceramists and landscape artists.

In an approach that integrates the understanding of the culture and customs of the inhabitants of the place, he favors the use of sustainable materials, combines stone, wood and ceramics with concrete, metal and glass and confronts modern lines and vernacular inspirations.
