Where the housing of tomorrow is decided.
For over seventy years, Bouygues Construction has been building housing, public facilities, and entire neighborhoods. Social housing occupies a special place in this activity: social housing organizations (Hlm) manage 4.8 million rental properties and are among the largest clients for construction in France.
For the 86th Hlm Congress, the group entrusted us with their stand at the Parc des Expositions de Bordeaux. From September 22 to 24, 2026, the largest traveling congress in France brought together social landlords, elected officials, local authorities, institutions, and industry professionals around the theme "Living 2032. For a useful five-year term". The previous edition, in Paris, had totaled 32,714 cumulative visits over three days.
We managed the project from end to end: concept, technical plans, manufacturing in our Paris and Lyon workshops, transport to Bordeaux, on-site assembly, and then dismantling. A single point of contact for the group, whose teams were able to focus on their meetings.

To go further
At the Hlm Congress, you don't sell a product, you build relationships. Organization directors, board presidents, local elected officials: the people you meet in the aisles are the ones who award the contracts for the following years. Three dense days, where the stand is used as much to receive visitors as it is to exist.
A stand designed as a reception venue
The balance is struck between openness and discretion: a welcoming facade from the aisle, and behind it, spaces to sit and talk about operations without being overheard.
An itinerant congress, therefore a stand that travels
The Hlm Congress changes cities every year: Paris, Bordeaux, and elsewhere tomorrow. We design the structures so that they can be dismantled, transported, and reassembled from one edition to the next, which reduces both the cost and the environmental footprint of the setup.
A single team, from sketch to dismantling
Design, manufacturing in our workshops, assembly, and dismantling. The stand was ready when the doors opened.
