Mathilde est une architecte française issue d’un parcours professionnel fort de plusieurs expériences, et qui exerce son activité libérale tantôt seule, tantôt associée. Si elle offre majoritairement ses services à des clients particuliers dans le cadre de restructurations d’appartements ou extensions de maisons individuelles, elle a récemment orienté une partie de son activité vers les domaines de la scénographie et du graphisme. Dans le cadre de sa pratique architecturale, la raison qui l’anime profondément est de fédérer des individus autour de projets diversifiés et de rencontres inspirantes, pour transmettre des émotions, surprendre, partager des connaissances et créer du lien, tout en valorisant la culture et le patrimoine existant. Elle s’attache pour cette raison à explorer des échelles variées de projets, axés sur une approche éclectique : l’art du papier qui la passionne, l’illustration, les mots… au service de l’architecture et de la technique qu’elle suppose.
Mathilde is a French architect whose professional background is based on many experiences around Paris, and who practices her liberal activity sometimes alone, sometimes associated with colleagues. While she mainly offers her services to individual clients for both renovation of apartments or extension of individual houses, she recently focused part of her activity on the speciality of graphics. As part of her own architectural practice, the reason that deeply motivates her is to federate individuals through diverse creative projects and inspiring meetings, valuing culture and architectural heritage, to transmit knowledge, to surprise, to share emotions and connect people, while cultivating and learning herself continuously. For this reason, she strives to explore various scales of projects, focused on an eclectic approach : paper art that fascinates her, illustration, words, scenography... always at the service of architecture.

BLOOM est un projet collaboratif où l’imaginaire de chacun est sollicité, avec l’idée que la notion de temporalité reflète pleinement la transition. Il propose la transformation progressive d’un espace noble autour d’un élément aussi poétique que symbolique mis au service de l’architecture : l’arbre, métaphore d’un état transitoire perpétuel. Majestueux car minimaliste, il plante le décor et éveille la curiosité, pour devenir le support esthétique de la mise en scène du passage du temps, et un terrain d’expérimentation de la transition. Au fil du temps, les visiteurs sont invités à nouer autour des branches un message exprimant leur transition de demain et ainsi participer à l’effloraison de cet arbre de papier. Ensemble, ils contribuent à la métamorphose architecturale de la cour, dont on redécouvre à chaque instant la lumière et la beauté, et qui devient un lieu vivant et fédérateur, dans lequel on peut se déplacer, s’exprimer, transmettre.
BLOOM is a collaborative project in which everyone’s imagination is called upon. It brings the idea that the notion of temporality fully reflects the transition. BLOOM offers a progressive transformation of a noble space based on one highly poetic and symbolic element, applied to architecture : the tree, metaphor of a perpetual transitory state. Majestic yet minimalist, it sets the scene and arouses curiosity, and becomes then an aesthetic medium to the course of time staged, as well as a testing ground for transition. Over time, visitors are invited to tie around the branches a message expressing their transition of tomorrow, and thus participate in the blooming of this paper tree. Together, they contribute to the architectural metamorphosis of the courtyard, whose light and beauty are rediscovered at every moment. It becomes a living and federative place, in which one can move, express oneself, share and communicate.
