There's a holiday village feel to Ile du Moulin, where Benedetto Bufalino's swimming pool caravan sits alongside homes that are emblematic of the leisure architecture of the 1960s and 1970s:  Bulles Six Coques (J-B Maneval), Tetrodon (Atelier d'Urbanisme et d'Architecture) and Hexacube (Georges Candilis & Anja Blomstedt), freshly arrived in Piacé. In the grass, an inflatable airlock designed by Christian Ragot unfurls; you go in and come out, experiencing the transition from birth to space! Further on in the village, Maroussia Rebecq is launching a boutique and sewing workshop under the Andrea Crews banner.

Cette édition est également l’occasion d’inaugurer les nouvelles pièces du parcours: une peinture murale des artistes Mrzyk & Moriceau sur le pignon du Kub d’Or (nouvel espace d’exposition de Piacé le radieux), une « préarchitecture » Prototype III by Marc Leschelier and a sculpture Worm by Caroline Mesquita. As for Olivier Vadrot, he is inviting students from the Toulon Provence Méditerranée art and design school to join him during the Journées de l'architecture to create a two-person minimum hut in two days! Finally, the exhibition spaces at the Moulin de Blaireau and the Kub d'Or will host different editions of Piacé le radieux, as well as works by Louis Lepère and M.c. Salò. And if the latter, a resident of the StupeflipWe'll have a song for you at the vernissage on Saturday 18 September from 6.30pm?
