The Pavillon de l’Arsenal is launching the 2025 edition of its call for projects dedicated to urban, architectural, landscape, and design innovation, open to all those who wish to invent new ways of shaping the city in Greater Paris.+
FAIRE the Great Paris
Since January, during renovation works, the Pavillon de l’Arsenal has been unfolding its activities outside its walls, across Greater Paris. In this new metropolitan context, FAIRE asserts itself more than ever as an accelerator of committed urban research, with the aim to:
→ FAIRE address today’s and tomorrow’s climate challenges.
→ FAIRE foster participatory, social, and solidarity-based approaches.
→ FAIRE amplify research and innovation on a metropolitan scale.
With FAIRE, the Pavillon de l’Arsenal seeks to support emerging designers, creators, and newly established structures by awarding grants to 8 laureates, including at least one prize dedicated to recent graduates or students.
The accelerator will guide the laureates in defining their research process, connecting with partners or territories essential to the development of their project, and will provide financial, technical, and logistical support.
Since its creation, the FAIRE call for projects has supported more than 80 initiatives. Discover all past laureates and their projects on the website.
