Two days to meet architects and move your project forward! After a first edition in 2024 that brought together many private individuals around housing issues and everyday architecture, the association Architectes & Particuliers is organizing the second edition of its Festival de l’Habitat in Paris. For two days, the Paris and Île-de-France public is invited to meet architects free of charge, attend mini-talks, and discuss renovation, extension, or redesign projects. Designed as a truly accessible and friendly festival, it is aimed at anyone who wants to better understand, imagine, or bring their housing project to life. Extensions, attic conversions, adding an extra room, optimizing spaces, adding a floor, or redesigning interiors: the architects, all members of the association, will share their advice, expertise, and vision of the profession through short, educational, and interactive formats. ON THE PROGRAM: Free 20-minute speed coaching sessions, allowing visitors to come with their plans, photos, or ideas and speak directly with an architect. (booking recommended) Mini-talks on practical housing issues. Spaces for dialogue and meetings to help bring a future project to life. Explanation sessions to better understand the architect’s role and responsibilities in a life project. Through this event, Architectes & Particuliers continues its mission: promoting everyday architecture and sustainably improving the comfort, uses, and quality of housing. A 1901-law association, Architectes & Particuliers brings together more than 160 architects registered with the Ordre des Architectes and committed to supporting private individuals. As a nonprofit, the association carries out information, advice, and awareness-raising initiatives to create direct dialogue between architects and residents.
