A project of Toit et Joie – Poste Habitat.

63 years after its construction, the first residence of Toit et Joie – Poste Habitat will be demolished and rebuilt. It was essential to collect the memory of this place and its tenants, some of whom moved in when the building was built. Toit et Joie – Poste Habitat called upon the photographer Patrick Zachmann, known for the poetry and the requirement of his glance, as well as the journalist Edouard Zambeaux and his accomplices of the ZEP, Zone of Priority Expression. The photographs and texts of this project were gathered in a memoir, published by Le Bec en l’air.
