The town of Vienne, the agglomeration community 'ViennAgglo', the Public Real Estate Establishment of west Rhône-Alpes, the general council of the department of Isère and the regional council of the Rhône-Alpes region have united in a project to rehabilitate the derelict Dyant industrial site. Design constitutes a pertinent approach to reflection allowing an analysis of all the parameters of the site. The Saint-Etienne Higher School of Art & Design has the prospective mission of re-linking this wasteland with the quarter and its inhabitants.
