We imagined and wanted the building to serve as a support for new landscape fragments, in order to enhance the value of the plot located at the heart of the block and visible from the surrounding land. Thus, as it stands at the bottom of the plot, the building conceals several “pieces” of landscape visible from the courtyard and neighbouring buildings.
From the entrance porch, the building features a garden planted with a number of existing trees, shrubs and ground cover: this is the first glimpse of the school as you enter the plot.
Further up, the building’s roof terrace, forming a hanging garden, is planted with potted shrubs whose silhouette, visible from the courtyard, redefines the building’s crest line.
Similarly, the accessible terrace of the Fab-lab building on the ground floor (R+1) will be planted with potted shrubs to enhance the view of the Montparnasse Tower. These shrubs will be visible from neighbouring plots.
