Architects & winemakers

A groundbreaking collaboration between architects and winemakers

Architecture en Champagne represents the fusion of architectural creativity with the Champagne vineyards.

Winemakers, aspiring to enhance wine tourism and even reinterpret viticultural heritage, provide a plot of land and recycled materials to create a contemporary vineyard lodge. Each microarchitecture thus established is a modern reinterpretation of traditional vineyard lodges - humble structures that were created in the 16th century and were further developped in the 19th century by winemakers for shelter, sustenance, and rest. Architects and construction professionals share their expertise, guiding participants through both the conceptualization and life-sized construction of these lodges.
