La Maison des Oiseaux reinvents thermal renovation as an act of cohabitation with the living world. The project transforms the insulating envelope into a shared habitat, where the thickness of the façade becomes a refuge for different bird species.
Designed as a protective double skin, this structure accommodates specific uses depending on its orientation: to the east, pigeons fertilize the vegetable garden; to the west, chickens contribute to the recycling of organic waste; to the north, geese watch over the entrance; to the south, birdsong accompanies the living spaces.
Designed for three generations, the house includes on the ground floor a dwelling adapted for people with reduced mobility, while the upper floors accommodate parents and children.
The project proposes an architecture in which humans and birds share the same shelter. Energy renovation thus goes beyond technical performance alone to become a sensitive and interdependent domestic ecosystem.
