The project was made possible thanks to a popular participatory loan.
A thousand million thanks to all our contributors.
​
The building site, in 2021, took 8 months to complete, with friends and self-builders.
A thousand million thanks to the many skilled hands, effective intelligence, tactical advice and know-how of all those involved.
​
The Exosquelette is a working tool, and a body. A singular architecture designed and built to welcome and accommodate.
​
The building is inscribed beneath a taut wire. Its design is determined by an acrobatic apparatus, a balancing line.
The endoskeleton inside is all wood, warmth and light. The golden ratio is hidden in its proportions.
​
The Exosquelette is an open fan, an inverted boat, a big sleeping beast whose belly welcomes our little bodies.

The Exosquelette is located in Luc-en-Diois, in the middle of the Drôme
mountains. More precisely, in the family eco-district “Le Muscardin”, a zone of grouped habitats based on poetic intent, permaculture and visions of a singing tomorrow. Self-realization, mutual aid, synergy. No charter. Just one rule: no rules, no barriers (THE rule!).
