This building applies the principles of circular economy where one person's waste is another person's resource. Thus, the facade is made of 180 wooden doors recuperated from the rehabilitation of an apartment building; the stone wool comes from the disassembly of a supermarket roof; the floor is composed of used wooden exhibition panels; the furniture is collected from the different junkyards in Paris; the lighting comes from obsolete street lights; the windows and the wooden strips are taken from Parisian building sites surplus… Both a full scale demonstrator of the potential that the reuse in architecture has, and a convivial place, great for the exchange of ideas and for encounters around a "cafe solidaire", the Circular Pavilion offers a rich and diverse program, free and open to all: exhibitions, debates, events, meet-ups, puppet shows for children, drawing workshop and 3D printings etc.
