The Mobilurbain project is a proposal for urban space reclamation. A private object becomes thus the medium of a public appropriation. On a parking space, in a wasteland, at a square corner, the Mobilurbain fits in with the city and offers a public space extension.

The busy street finds then its break. The Mobilurbain folds and unfolds: in trip position, it goes very small; in urban furniture position, it becomes ergonomic and homely; in minimal housing position, it provides a shelter for its occupant.
