Le village et son double offers a look at Dominique Perrault's experience as designer of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Village.

Part lecture book, part urban planning manual, the book explores the transformation of a neighborhood into an integral part of Greater Paris, offering a profound reflection on contemporary urban design.
This book is perfectly anchored in French and international current affairs. The book explores the vision of renowned French architect Dominique Perrault, who designed an Olympic and Paralympic village at the crossroads of concerns such as legacy, site reversibility and the relationship with the existing territory. He discusses the history of Olympic villages in recent decades, explains the choice of the Paris site, its past, the process of Paris' bid for the 2024 Games, Dominique Perrault's guiding concept for the design of the village, and the project's 12 ambitions. It is a window through which Greater Paris takes shape...

Richly illustrated with photographs, graphics and plans, this book is aimed at designers and the general public alike. Its publication, a few months before the start of the Games, amplifies its impact by exploiting current events.

Perrault, Dominique: - In 1989, architect and urban planner Dominique Perrault built the Bibliothèque nationale de France, a building that is now part of twentieth-century architectural history. Internationally recognized, he has completed several innovative, large-scale projects, including the velodrome and Olympic swimming pool in Berlin, the Ewha women's university in Seoul, and is currently transforming the former air terminal at Les Invalides into the future museum-school of the Giacometti Foundation. Dominique Perrault sees architecture as a discipline intrinsically linked to urban planning, he has worked on the urban future of the Ile de la Cité in Paris and developed the athletes' village for the Paris 2024 Games. Honorary professor at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, he is also the laureate of the Praemium Imperiale award and a member of the Institut.
