Designed as part of the Embellir Paris public commission, DRONE MOBILE consists of three steel weather vanes installed at the entrance of a daycare center and public library. Located at the foot of Jean Willerval’s brutalist building near Port-Royal, these kinetic structures bring vibrant pops of color that contrast with the raw concrete surroundings, offering a playful, functional micro-space for families and local residents.
Navigating a demanding production process, the project required extensive engineering studies, custom manufacturing, and complex municipal authorizations to bring this permanent urban intervention to life.
