Microtopies – Chantiers ouverts au public

Published January 17, 2025

Contributed by SM Foundry

Publication accompanying the Microtopies festival in the French city of Lille and participating municipalities, organized by the WAAO Center for Architecture and Urban Planning.

From WAAO (translated):

We invite you to discover unique installations: cabins imagined by groups of architects, landscape planners and designers. These construction sites are an invitation to participate in the construction of these unique cabins and to discover the creative processes live. Each site will host activities and events. These architectural and ephemeral "micro-interventions" are designed to reconsider the place of imagination and reuse in our urban and rural landscapes. Made from recycled materials, the cabins will be the central point of activities, tours, workshops and exhibitions throughout the summer.

Designed by Julien Lelievre, the publication features two typefaces: Hauser by SM Foundry for titles and Signal by Production Type for body text.
