The design of the Maison des étudiants chinois was entrusted to Atelier FCJZ and Coldefy & Associés Architectes Urbanistes. Its architecture draws inspiration from the traditional communal houses of Fujian Province, known as Tulou, as well as from the haussmannian urban block. Its creation was made possible by an agreement signed in 2016 between the People’s Republic of China and the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Development.
The house features two interior gardens and a terrace garden. The rooms open onto a covered, open-sided interior gallery and are accessed via “promenade” staircases that wind through the gardens.
Thanks to its 47 houses, the Cité internationale offers a rich programme of cultural and artistic events for all ages, as well as debates on the major issues facing the world today: concerts, screenings, lectures, exhibitions, shows… Find out more in our Citescope cultural calendar.
Every house runs thanks to a professional and dedicated team. Whether they are a receptionist, planning manager, cleaner, maintenance or security personnel, everyone is committed to ensuring that your stay is as smooth as possible.
The campus is yours so take part in organising its social and cultural life! Every year residents are elected within their house. They take care of the life there and represent students concerning the house’s administration. We also encourage our residents to engage in collective projects and in the organisation of cultural and artistic events.
