Le Verger de Sylvestre is a collective of 17 homes with a certain intergenerational mix. This operation is carried out in self-promotion. The inhabitants commissioned FBG Architecture through a SCIA whose managers carry out this mission on a voluntary basis. All the architectural choices have been agreed with all the inhabitants, each accommodation has been designed to measure according to the needs of the families and their financial capacities. In July 2013, FBG took over from the Agence VPBA which was at the origin of the project and which created the conditions for the participatory approach. The FBG Architecture agency continued the project and the participatory approach. The project is co-signed.
 

The program consists of:
• 14 free access lots
• 3 lots in social accession (PSLA) supported by Habitats Solidaires

• 17 apartments from 60 to 100 m²
