For over twenty years, Well Architectures has combined architectural practice with urban reflection. This reflection was built on the ground, notably in several Bordeaux agencies and then in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, focusing on social housing, rehousing, and the role of residents in the urban fabric. It can be found here: press releases, published books and studies, and awards received for projects conducted with local populations and stakeholders.
