Archive Extensions

To dialogue with current state of things

Two extension of 6 levels adjoin the current archive warehouses on both sides. The intention is meant simple and obvious, in its architectural identity as well as in the uses to come, for a readable, smart and clam building vis-à-vis the external environment. It offers a respectful dialogue with what currently exist, while bringing – with materials and forms – a strong identity to the institution it is made for. The extensions are designed with the same architectural or functional care, so as to serenely consider the evolutions in use and organization, with simplicity and generosity. Natural light is managed through a single patio door at each level. Materials : exterior skin assembled with stamped concrete, concrete double walls, aluminum carpentry.
