Jean-Paul Viguier & Associés is an internationally operating practice founded in 1992 and based in Paris. The practice designs and develops projects following a global approach that spans architecture, urban planning, landscaping and interior design. In this exhibition Jean-Paul Viguier presents his manifesto on 'IntenCity': How can a growing population and the resulting density and intensity be conducted responsibly by city planners and architects? The 'IntenCity' manifesto will be illustrated using four key frames of reference: 'Historical-Urban Intensity', 'Architectural Intensity', 'Landscape Intensity' and 'Demographic Intensity'. It will be demonstrated and elucidated through four selected projects on display in the playful installation: the Espace Claude Monet in Rouen (2012), the Confluence Leisure and Shopping Center in Lyon (2012), the MUSE District in Metz (2018) and the NEO-Europea District in Brussels (2025). Viguier's key challenge is how to deal with the increasing population as well as the resulting density and intensity responsibly, once the Department of Urban Planning and Design at Harvard University forecast for the year 2050 has become reality and 70% of the world's population lives in cities. The exhibition installation begins with the manifesto written by Jean-Paul Viguier presenting the concept of 'IntenCity' as well as the main principles governing the work of the practice. Exhibition: Aedes Architecture Forum, Berlin, Germany (03.05. - 13.06.2019).
