  • Today Gwilen presents its project in Brest (Brittany), during a public presentation but also on a booth. The event is organised by the Région Bretagne, Brest city and the national institute for circular economy. Marine sediments are considered as waste, as there is any viable way to valorize it. Gwilen aim to turn this waste into a new resource for our constructions. Brest and the Region Bretagne is a nice anchor for this project, as marine sediments are a real issue for this territories! #bretagne #régionbretagne #brestmetropole #inec #lequartzbrest
  • Today Gwilen is giving a conference for architecture students of the École Spéciale d'Architecture (ESA), in the 14th arrondissement of Paris. Yann (Gwilen's founder) presents his approach as architect in the creation of Gwilen, illustrated by some experimental structures that he realized before launching this project. This is put in perspective by the role that architects can play in the current environmental challenges, which goes through a "handyman" attitude, as defined by Claude Lévi-Strauss in "La pensée sauvage". #gwilen #conference #architect #penseesauvage #sustainability
  • Pitch the project in a stadium: done. Gwilen was selected to present its project in a regional contest in Bretagne, against brittany's and parisian's start-ups that have a positive social and environmental impact. #cleantech #sustainabledesign
