Halle de Calais
A pliable covered hall on the Place d’Armes of Calais ; held by a light long-range structure stating a horizontal line while the tower of the Place stands high in the background ; the architecture offers wide openings and a great adaptability to different employ.
The large accordion door opens like a curtain to a stage to reveal partially or completely the life inside. The hall establishes its role as a vibrant urban architecture. When it is completely closed, wide glass breaches integrated in the folding door offer a constant view inward and out, and let the natural light flood in.
