Driven by the belief that architecture, urban planning, and the environment are of public interest, the CAUE Rhône Métropole, located on the banks of the Saône River at the entrance to the historic heart of the City of Lyon, is a dynamic and open place dedicated to understanding and experimenting with the creation of our cities and landscapes. Through exhibitions, conferences, tours, publications, training sessions, and advisory actions, the CAUE Rhône Métropole aims to foster dialogue and collective inspiration by highlighting inspiring practices and projects, thereby providing everyone with the means to understand the territory in which we live and anticipate future developments.

Exhibition: A Tour of Materials for an Eco-Friendly House

CAUE Rhône Métropole

How can we reconnect housing with its territory by considering its specific characteristics and resources: its materials, its heritage richness, and its regional know-how?

The exhibition traces how the collective Anatomies d’Architecture took on this challenge during the experimental renovation project of a traditional house in Orne (Normandy): 0% concrete, 0% plastic membranes, 100% natural materials sourced from within 100 km of the site!

Dive into this adventure through large-format comic boards and interviews that highlight the industries and expertise surrounding the 8 materials used in this renovation: brick, black locust, Douglas fir, hemp, earth, chestnut, recycled cork, and reclaimed oak. Two years of field research were necessary to scientifically document this extraordinary renovation project.

An exhibition designed by the cooperative Anatomies d’Architecture, with the support of the Maison de l’Architecture de Normandie – le Forum, Les Grands Ateliers, Territoires pionniers, La Maison de l’Architecture Normandie, and the Region of Normandy.
