SCHOOL MAURICE BEJART
Located in the largest width of the plot, the project is part of the approach of urbanization of the neighboring neighborhood: its plan in strips, arranged a little fan, does not constitute a built front.
Offering compactness and fluidity of circulation, the R+1 set consists of three volumes: two for the
intimate and warm, clad in Douglas-fir-stone cladding; a for the third place, mineral and white. They are connected by a bridge, hyphen between the different entities of the programme, whose photovoltaic coverage is accompanied by a alternating glazing and translucent polycarbonate on the façade.
The project is part of an ambitious environmental approach and has a clear bioclimatic design. The buildings are perfectly oriented North/South offering an easy management of solar inputs by a sun breeze south side. The building is passively refreshed by a natural ventilation system. The plan is compact and allows to circumscribe to the maximum the heated spaces of the intermediate spaces.
The materials used were carefully chosen with a privileged use of materials from renewable and local resources. The constructive system is displayed and a large number of materials are left visible. The project is intended to be exemplary and educational for children.
