l’Îlot Saint-Patrick au Mas-d’Agenais (Lot-et-Garonne, FRANCE)

Discover Îlot Saint-Patrick in Le Mas-d’Agenais, a shared housing project that illustrates a committed, frugal approach to transforming existing buildings. This visit will be an opportunity to explore the project and its architectural and construction choices, and to discuss new ways of living, renovating and making the most of what already exists.

As part of the European Action Week – Building the Future We Need!, the Gascogne group of the Frugalité Heureuse et Créative movement invites you to discover Îlot Saint-Patrick in Le Mas-d’Agenais (Lot-et-Garonne, France).

This visit will introduce a shared housing project developed through the transformation and renovation of an existing building. The project is part of a broader reflection on new ways of living in town centres, maintaining social connections, and the place of older people in our society.

It will be an opportunity to meet and exchange with those involved in the project, learn about its design and uses, and discover the choices made to combine resource efficiency, quality of life, preservation of the existing building, and new ways of living together.

The event will begin with a friendly gathering over drinks and a meal, providing an opportunity to introduce the project and its approach, followed by a guided tour of the premises and informal discussions.

Programme:

• 1:00 pm – Welcome, drinks and meal, introduction to the project

• 2:00 pm – Guided tour of Îlot Saint-Patrick and discussion
