Immeubles des frères Favre

House · by André Joseph Favre · 1937

5-9 avenue Droz  ; 1-3 place Payot, Besançon, France

The Favre Brothers' apartment complex was commissioned in 1937 by the Société Moderne pour les Commerces et Immeubles. Situated in a residential neighborhood near spa establishments and a promenade, the design features a U-shaped plan, consisting of seven six-story buildings along Avenue Edouard-Droz, Place René-Payot, and Rue de la Mouillère. The interior includes garages, while the façades exhibit a rhythm of protruding and recessed balconies, complemented by rounded bow windows that create turret-like elements. The corner structure at the intersection of Place Payot and Avenue Edouard-Droz is designed with a more monumental presence.
