Ferme du Chaudron demonstrates how adaptive reuse can support not only the preservation of built heritage, but also the renewal of productive landscapes, a former farmstead. The project brings together several organisations dedicated to sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty, creating a shared framework for production, education and collective gathering. The jury found the intervention both fresh and necessary, particularly in how it redesigns the farm grounds and creates conditions for collaboration, exchange, and collective agency. The project demonstrates the landscape’s capacity to act as a transformative framework that accommodates ecological, social, and productive functions with spatial specificity and tectonic expression. - from the award statements
