In an optics of opposition and questionings, the project led is implanted in Lozère in a rural territory, is beforehand in search of a sensibility and a old-fashioned consciousness to tend towards a possible return in back by trying to update the traditions, a cultural inheritance and an architectural heritage which today, dedicates to its disappearance to the profit of a modern landscape: from the village to the residential district.

Located in Ispagnac, where inveterate agriculture is vital, where the shepherd drags his flock, where boots are essential, where the climate is not mild.
