the projet affirms its status as a public facilité by ostensibly breaking away from its context, particularl through the color work.

The facades, at the edge of the terrain, display a pixelated gradient of bricks ranging from white to black.

They contrast both with the environment, but also with the heart of the building, rich in colors, of a blue and a frank orange whose identity is reinforced through a sure game of obliques : as much in plan as in section, for the exeriors as well as the interiors, we engaged in an endeavor in order to leave in orthonormal system.
