ARCHITECTS

Philippe PASCAL, architect DPLG, originally from Madagascar, has kept from this country the passion of wildlife, of its flora and its vast forests, unfortunately disappearing. From this ecological sinking comes the deep conviction that sharing and commensalism are behaviours that can help reconciliation of man with nature, with the living. Close cooperation was developed with his brother, research director at INRA in Rennes, in order to understand interactions between construction and environment.

Eric de CHAMBURE, architect DESA, not only works as an architect, but also as a horse breeder, and acts as an animal expert, especially in the development of stud projects.

The 2 partners of the firm are assisted by 8 qualified architects, 2 executive secretaries and as well as complementary collaborators. The team is divided between Bordeaux and Paris.

HISTORY

Committed toward ecological problems, in the 1980s, Philippe Pascal and Eric de Chambure developed works and studies on self construction and the use of living materials such as earth, wood and stone.

In 1990, they created in Paris ART’UR Architectes, enabling the realization of major projects on exceptional natural sites *.

Delivered in 2000, the French Institute of Technology for Forest-based and Furniture Sectors of Bordeaux consecrates their approach: experimental wooden architecture, the FCBA has been a pilot project for Aquitaine and a reference at national level representing France at the International Conference on Construction and Environment in Maastricht.

As activity in Aquitaine grew, in 2003, Art’ur opened an office in Bordeaux, faithful to their principles of humanist architects (human contacts and sustained support toward the client are fundamental values in leading the project). The production of Art’ur demonstrates a commitment to a right environmental approach, in particular through a vision that privileges clean industrial processes (prefabrication, modularity), a good knowledge of thermal and energy performances, optimization of natural light input … Each experience is an occasion for a reflection specific to the project’s context and works to place the architectural design as an answer to environmental issues. The technique is not added on the architectural project but maintains a close relationship with the architecture thanks to the consistency of answers provided.

Art’Ur is regularly selected to compete in major public projects, as schools or institutions, all types of equipment; each architectural proposal is committed to a strong environmental approach in which the use of wood is predominant.
