Musy, M. Simonnot, N. Date 2011-06-20 Abstract This paper introduces results of three case-studies of large-scale housing estates situated in Nantes (France): Dervallières (1952/1965), Breil Malville (1955/1967) and Malakoff (1967/1971). The main objective of this grands ensembles study is to produce knowledge about their architectural and urban atmosphere characteristic. The atmosphere concept is defined as interaction between some physical phenomenons like: sound, light, wind with urban environment as perceived by the space occupant [Augoyard J-F, 1998]. This paper is organized globally in two parts, the first part presents brief synthesis of history and current context of these areas, second part gives idea about atmospheres characteristic for three cases-studies. This consists in clarifying and analyzing complex relationships between urban, social and physical (sound, light, sunshine, wind, etc.) environment, taking into account users perceptions and urban renewal.
