Paris 2024 Olympic Village: building features mixed-use and reversible design, following ESG principles, in architectural project signed by Triptyque
After the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the building will be converted into affordable housing.
Paris, 2024 – Designed to accommodate athletes and technical staff for the world’s biggest sporting event, the Paris 2024 Olympic Village has one of its buildings designed by Triptyque. Built on a 52-hectare site, previously made up of industries, the complex of buildings is intended to accommodate living and working spaces that will go beyond the Olympic Games.
As well as meeting the residential needs of the neighborhood where it is located, the project presents the identity and appeal of this developing area, so that it becomes the forerunner of a new way of “living the city”. With ecological corridors, the blocks of buildings will be connected to each other, all the way to the banks of the Seine.
During the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the area will house 14,000 people, including athletes and technical staff, but in September it will be put to a new use. After another phase of work, in which the buildings will be renovated, a neighborhood will be created with residential, commercial and public spaces.
To preserve biodiversity and natural and energy resources, Triptyque applied solutions such as installing an active roof, controlling carbon impact, preserving the biochemical quality of the soil and using water for urban cooling.
The main façade of the building forms a square with the Cité du Cinéma, a space that stands out, making the whole complex recognizable. Organized around a mixed-use core, it connects the programs – offices and residences – brought together in the same continuity.
In the building signed by the firm, the residences are distributed in four pavilions, most with a transversal layout on both sides, with living spaces at the ends of the floor plan and an intimate area in the center. In addition, each apartment has its own private balcony, increasing the outdoor spaces.
Adaptable to lifestyles that care about the environment while promoting sharing and social ties, the building’s architecture is based on these two contemporary and sustainable challenges: reversibility and mixed use.

Triptyque is a Franco-Brazilian architecture and urban planning firm known for its naturalistic and rationalist approach. It is led by founding partners Guillaume Sibaud and Olivier Raffaëlli, graduates of the Paris La Seine School of Architecture and the Paris Institute of Urbanism.
Driven by the same interest in contemporary metropolises and the desire to confront other realities, they founded the Triptyque office in São Paulo in 2000 and in Paris in 2008. In more than two decades of history, Triptyque has developed public and private architecture, urbanism and interiors projects in Latin America and Europe in various fields such as residential, corporate, education, hospitality, health and research.
The firm is also present at various exhibitions and biennials. Models of some of its projects have been included in museum collections such as those of the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Triptyque has received numerous international awards and has been published by publishers in several countries.
