Philippe Mousset, Organic Bubble House
Philippe Mousset has arranged it with a community of friends. The advantage of the concept, it was that the occupants had the opportunity to transform it as they wished before solidifying the outer shell. Once they felt comfortable there and the layout was right for them, all they had to do was spray plaster containing fiberglass on the stretched canvas. It was then gone to last. A Fleurus, the premises have been occupied for ten years. Then, we abandoned them.
