Darwin Eco-système, Bordeaux

Darwin is a unique little community in La Bastide that brings together businesses and citizens for environmentally-friendly living.

A project like no other, Darwin is dedicated to sustainable development, social entrepreneurship and citizen activism. It made its home in former military barracks dating back to the Second French Empire. The barracks were used to bring together all the different sections of the military in Bordeaux and went through both the First and Second World War. In 2005 the barracks were completely abandoned by the military. Darwin claimed the barracks and converted them into a new “ecosystem”.
Darwin welcomes more than 1000 people everyday and provides coworking spaces and business help for start-ups or companies dedicated to sustainable development. But there are also loads of activities like an XXL skatepark and a bike polo field as well as events like film screenings and concerts. The Darwin ecosystem even lets graffiti artists have free rein on the walls of the buildings. In this urban and artistic area, you can find France’s largest organic restaurant, an organic grocery store and a lot of other interesting boutiques.
