Vincent Lavergne Architecture Urbanisme: Studio Profile

Vincent Lavergne Architecture Urbanisme (VL-AU) is an architecture and urbanism studio founded in 2017 by Vincent Lavergne. The practice maintains offices in Paris, Marseille, and Barcelona. Its work centers on the processes by which cities take shape, with a particular focus on systems of interdependence between center and periphery. The studio is firmly committed to adapting the existing city. Its approach is grounded in the idea that mixed-use development—programmatic, constructive, and social—produces a resilient and inclusive city in which ecology and social progress form a single dynamic. VL-AU's identity rests on a dual expertise: urbanism, with the goal of building the city upon itself, and low-carbon construction using materials of geological origin, in order to make ecological and urban dynamics effective at the architectural scale. Vincent Lavergne, a founding partner of the studio, is an architect and urbanist. The source material does not provide further biographical details about his education or career.
