Il faudra me passer sur le corps
The jury was impressed by the relationship to the human body evoked in all aspects of the proposal. It speaks to a new type of city and a new way of inhabiting it. The tube-walkways, positioned randomly above the expressway trenches, consist of a “bone structure” covered in a flexible wall, partially folded inward, that suggests skin. The need for a private relationship to urban space, a response to the aggressivity of the city, is obvious. Members appreciated the quality and human scale of the tunnel objects.
