Technical and scientific centre of Paris EstMarne-la-Vallée  2012

In an extension to the green belt of the university campus, this building, combined with landscaping, constitutes a major public space in the new town. The creation of an undulating landscape contrasts with the flatness of the site, resulting in the huge green expanse of serene parkland. The architecture is in osmosis with the surroundings, which spread out in a panoramic view from the “green” roof terrace. The design of the laboratories dedicated to environmental research and science is thus perfectly attuned to the work performed in them.
