The build­ing in close con­tact with the Sébeillon project.

We saw the con­struc­tion as a large ceta­cean stran­ded on the edge of the road, mouth open, ready to wel­come hungry vis­it­ors into its belly.

Lying on a slope with two floors hav­ing street level access on both fronts of the build­ing, above law­yer offices, under­neath a Food Court. 

Inside, the space is dom­in­ated by the skel­et­on frame, con­strain­ing the dimen­sions of the typo­lo­gies’ volumes. The columns impose their pres­ence, their archa­ic sculp­tur­al forms stand­ing in the middle of the cor­ridor with everything struc­tured around them.

The building’s effi­cient con­crete struc­ture provided great poten­tial for the new intern­al mar­ket and food sec­tion to span over two floors from the ground level.

The upper levels under the pitched roof will be con­ver­ted into artists’ duplex stu­dio apartments.
