Project
Design of Opera House

opera house
Site Plan With the collaboration of
M. Morel-Fort Grégoire
City, history, link, monumentality are the main items of this final project. From a complete analysis of a complex site, this extension project for the Opera de Lorraine is the concretization of years of studies and researches in architecture. The site is a patchwork made of few historic elements and unexploited urban spaces. The link between Place Stanislas and Parc de la Pepinière makes space unity difficult. Moreover, the last remain of Nancy’s fortifications, the Bastion de Vaudemont, is not incorporated in the general composition. It is not treated as a space but just as an interference between the city major places. Finally, its presence creates several residual spaces. This project is firstly focused on the creation of new rehearsal spaces and a new stage. That one must have the same dimensions as the original stage. This renovation also aims at showcasing the various opera disciplines and at giving the city a new place. Actually, the main request was to change the statute of the opera in the town, to make it more transparent, more understandable.
The purpose is to define an opera house not only made for performances, but a real Opera House in Nancy. The first decision was to conceive this extension separately from the existing opera house. It is located in parallel to the original building and only connected by a platform allowing the transportation of sets from a stage to the other. Between those two buildings, a succession of yards is modeling a new public space. The site is then restructured, integrating the old bastion as a new space element. This one is hollowed out to reveal the archeologic tracks and to transform this volume into a new place facing the extension stage. These tracks revealed, the extension is made in order to let them visible. Rehearsal spaces are then flying over history. This suspension allows to free the public place and to unify at the same time. This idea emerges following a reflexion about analogy in architecture. Based on the opera’s vocabulary and the stage’s culture, the extension is inspired by the flying system and the

opera sets.
A huge crowning structure withstands all the charges with steel veils. Those ones definite the interior space and allows to play with the slabs’ high. Suspension frees the ground and the section, allowing to define free platforms for rehearsal spaces. Moreover, rooms are visually linked to each other by this game of suspension and panels. It promotes cohesion between the different opera professions, from tailors to musicians passing by dancers. Historic tracks, symbolized by a piece of structure conserved in the extension, take place in the centre of the building. They are located under a skylight, which crosses all the sections to unify rehearsal spaces and circulations between those spaces around History. Vertical circulations and technical elements are included in the concrete structure, which withstands the charges from the crowning. The second stage is located on the other side of rehearsal spaces, beside the concrete structure. They form a kind of cantilever balancing on the structure, between the stage and the rehearsal space. The scene is located in front of the reshaped bastion, which is a space with degrees. This setting can be used for external representation near Place Stanislas. This fortification element becomes then a place for a walk. This landscaping also restructures the site urbanity by making a long line of premises for associations in the bastion’s thickness. It

closes the place and makes it unique. The link between Place Stanislas and Parc de la Pépinière the new place made by this strip. Thinking on the opera’s extension allowed to give the bastion a new identity and to integrate it into the urban space. It also creates new facilities in a strategic city place. Answering to those programmatic requirements, the project showcases the Opera in the city, inspired by lyric arts, its vocabulary and its poesy. As a poetic machine for rehearsal spaces, the new Opera House meets the audience and keeps its magic nature by the suspension. It also allows to include in the same building all the persons working for opera, linking them to History, the city and the Stage.

Model
The model and the work about space research study are in the centre of the project’s conception. This work allows to understand the existing buildings and their urban context better. The space representation in volume has allowed to get the creation process done, which help us to definite this project of an Opera House. These pages display the model created for the project final presentation. Based on a semantic research, materials and their colors have been chosen to express the different interventions on the site. Hence, the ground and its variations are represented by massive oak to show their unchanging nature, archaeological artifacts are made of beech to distinguish their presence. All the context buildings are made in yellow cardboard to represent its unity, showing the elevation drawing. The project is made of white cardboard to differentiate it from the monotone nature of the ensemble. This choice allows to represent the volume well and to show the project integration.

Poesy house
Site Plan Preceding the final project, this work on this complex site tried to size the history and the problems of a particular urban context, which is confused by the composition of several places in Nancy and a huge ignored bastion. Without programmatic requirement, the intervention must give a new sense to this space and also a new quality to the link between the Place Stanislas and the Parc de la Pépinière. The main characteristics of the site were its fragmented identity made by the bastion and its cohabitation between strong layers of History. Produced by the confrontation between the closed city, fortified and symbolized by this bastion, and the modern city, organized around great public spaces, this patchwork of spaces is abandoned, in margin of the composition of places in Nancy. The project is inspired by the Piazza Grande in the city of Arezzo and allows to reveal the bastion historical identity. Hence, this one and its volume become a inclined place, where the former fortification tracks are outlined by a ground design. The intervention of plant site grading is combined with elements similar to the ones composing the Piazza Grande. A long building is located at the top of the place. In suspension above archaeological tracks, it reminds by analogy the Palazzo delle Logge designed by Vasari. Also inspired by Mendes Da Rocha’s work, this structure closes the place and hosts a bar in order to bring more life into this place. Under it, a footpath is set in the thickness of the new inclined
place, following the ancient wall-walk. This access leads to an auditorium located under the place, lighted by skylights. Those ones are used as signposting at night. Finally, in connection with the top of the place, but also with the ground floor of the street, a Poesy House is created, including a working room, a computer room and a library. Excavation works on the former bastion free the archaeological remains, in particular the structure called «orison». Spaces are set above those remains, suspended on concrete post-and-beam framing. The rooms create an upward spiral by their disposition; they form the Poesy House. Those different rooms are unified under a unique cover, inspired by Sverre Fehn (and particularly his pavilion of Scandinavia in Venice), the filters sunlight, giving a special atmosphere for work, memories and reflection. The bastion becomes another place, unique by its form, which outlines the site’s history and also brings unity and poesy to this urbanity.

Changing one’s view on the architecture design. During one intensive week, a project must be sketched. This group work had to lean on the confrontation between the students’ thoughts and the invited architects’ practice. The main subject was studying water, its way and its history in the city of Nancy. This study was concentrated on the site geological layers, from the soil until the groundwater, rather than analyze the site and its urban and architectural composition. This work defined a section composed of few strata. The project then changed, trying to create an architectural object telling the geological history of the city and its water, instead of making a rational composition. Inspired by geological strata, this project is organized into similar layers. In this layer superposition, a few spaces are dug, reminding the water’s action on rocks:
the erosion. Each space hosts a bath or a museum. Museum relates the history of water, from the dinosaurs to today. Spaces are linked together as caves, they form a succession of cavities and pools. This erosion’s work was studied with an important model’s work. Experimentation is central in this project, seeking to reproduce the natural process of erosion at a small scale, to create new spaces. Many materials and techniques have been tried, before finding the best solution. Finally, the creation of a concrete model with polystyrene template gave the best result in modeling cavities Through this intensive work, this project became stronger and more symbolic. Experimentation and comparing viewpoints allow to change one’s mind, to stimulate the creativity and to give stronger ideas.

Light is a key material in architecture.
Its nature is the main subject of this baths’ project. In this small architectural ensemble, where two different-sized pools are designed, the light has the most important role. Hence, its external form is brut, a concrete parallelepiped, drilled by rectangular holes on his top, and accessible by downward stairs. The project, half-buried, is composed of two different levels, one with a small pool and another with a bigger pool and a shower. The first is higher than the second and they are linked by a stair which is hidden by a concrete volume and lightened on its extremities. There is also a visual link insured by the transparence and the opening in the concrete volume, connecting the two pools. Treated as a material, light allows to create a rich atmosphere, with games of reflections on the water and shadows on the concrete volume. A few ambiences are created by many skylights. Those ones are placed in order to outline the strongest composition point. Light becomes a precious link, playing with volumes and
textures, making the place more intimate. Hence, the concrete cover of this space is composed to outline this ambience. High ceilings and low ceilings create a compression and dilatation effect. Meeting the space, those high and low volumes allow to enrich the space in the building, making the baths more private. This game of compression and dilatation models the space that the light sublimes. This project is thus an intimate and calm place where lights and volumes are unified to create environment conducive to bathing.

Textile Plan
Textile materials offer an opportunity to innovate and to invent. This workshop give a chance to study all its capacities and to change his minds to create an original structure. The design must take support on the main characteristics of this material which works only in tension. This work was a group reflection, gathering for this occasion many students from different school of architecture. The collaboration between everybody and the share of works and ideas is essential to design an innovating project. Firstly inspirited by a biological concept, the structure’s form involved because of the students confrontation. Hence, the structure was changed to reveal a challenges which is based on material characteristics. It designs with a textile
fabric with two points of tension and one wire. The transition between the concept and a model at scale 1:1 is made by the realization of computer model. From there, templates can be design and realized. After few days of working, textile fabric is put in tension on steel circle. Cause of the two points of tension, the wire describes a vortex of textile materials, and reveals all the capacities of this material.

Sport Hall
Site plan With the collaboration of
M. Binachon Brice & M. Jacquot Eddy
The link between emotion and construction cannot be denied, the «flexib’hall», project of sports hall, illustrates this relation. Conceived for a national student competition called «Construir’Acier, it shows all the steel possibilities in order to create a major space, a building designed for Olympic Games. For this project, steel is exploited to its full capacities to conceive a strong and shinny public space. Implanted near the Olympic stadium, in the north of the Olympic village, this sports hall is integrated in the urban frame with a great forecourt. It allows to create a public place and to point out the project as a major element in the neighborhood. Its composition is based on the use of steel with which it is possible to build a strong structure, with steel post-and-beam frames or to created an organic form with curves. Steel can make a structure but it can
also be a shinny building skin. Hence, the project’s plan is the confrontation between a rigid frame, integrated in urban ensemble, and an original existing form. The latter hosts programmatic requirements and its undulations allow to qualify spaces, striking the entrance, hall accesses and the backstage. The sports hall in the form has mobile degrees in order to be able to host a wide range of events. The interior composition is hidden by vertical steel blades, describing a waving that animates the elevation, unifies the project and plays with transparency without affecting the interior lighting. Steel becomes the support of our emotions, a strong point in the city.

Site Plan
This Housing project concentrates many spatial experiments. Indeed, the main subject is a work about
promiscuity and density. Localized on a plot in residential neighborhood, the project has to make a connexion with his context. The main idea is inspired by the need of privacy of the inhabitants and by the construction of hedges and limits around proprieties. Conception tries to describe an interiority, to make live on the wall. It creates an enclosure with two buildings. Those constructions, placed on the wall, let the South elevation without construction and allow to bring light in the yard. Project raises questions of typology, about the nature of the wall, the design of the yard and the housings. Moreover, the interest for the work of Yona Friedman and a fascination for the design and structure of Guiseppe Terragni’s buildings make change the project. It passed from the wall to a new form which better answers to the subject. The wall has changed in three-dimensional frame of post-and-beams structure which integrates the two buildings corpses. This structure is everywhere and
allows to definite project’s limits. The yard becomes more luminous. Besides, posts and beams support apartments and balconies. Those can be enlarge to occupy, overtime, all the concrete frame. It let a liberty to the inhabitant to take up the building. The two buildings corpses hosts two kinds of housing, one with six duplex and the other with nine apartments with one room. Privacy is essential in this project, everything is designed to give comfort to the people and to give to them a generous common space with the yard. This one, inspired by the monastery and cloisters, is raised to put nature and vegetation in the heart of the composition. Unity is outlined by the structure. However, the need of differences between the apartment and way of live isn’t denied to allow to be appropriate by the inhabitants.

Ensemble View First step in project’s conception, first meet with architecture’s issues. With a specific programmatic requirements, which requires to create a house with a workshop (here for a metalworker), first reflections are made on the order, the function and the function. Influenced by the work of Juan O’Gorman and the vocabulary of industrial architecture, the house is organized in three parallel spans which follow the structure. The north span hosts vertical circulations which allow the access to the housing and the garden. The central span, by its largest dimension, is for the workshop on the ground floor and for the main space upstairs. The workshop works as an pan plan from the street to the backyard. The south span hosts a succession of pieces in the ground floor (with shop, office..) and, upstairs, there is a division between inside/outside, letting a balcony for the
housing outlining a distance from the street. The esthetic takes a lot to industrial typology, with using concrete and steel but thus by the presence of sheds and long windows. This use give an unity to the project, following the main idea and allowing to bring a lot of light at the apartment. The repartition between workshop and housing takes also on traditional logic which let the ground floor for the work and the housing upstair. It make a strong project, where function and use are mixed without deny the comfort of the inhabitants.

M. Vincent Guilhem ARCHITECTURE FRAGILE
This exhibition was organized during one week by Guilhem Vincent, a young architect, about the everyday life, about its existence and resistance. We are living in everyday life, we are building it with our habits and our actions. In a small gallery in Nancy, ‘’la galerie 9’’, a construction was build. It was made from wooden beams and planks. The occupation of the space was the main subject about this exhibition, as a spatial translation of our everyday life. The structure was designed like three tripods connected by two beams. Few planks were nailed on tripod to stabilized the structure. Started from a philosophical and artistic question, the structure was create to host, during a short time, every daily activity. Thus, daily was exhibited and an architecture, an
architecture fragile, was designed day after day. Because our daily haven’t any plan to be, this structure was made in the gallery in one day, with te abilities of everyone, based on the discussion. Our decision was to create tripod with 100x100mm pine beams tied together with a cord. Every tripod was settled with planks in different high to symbolized different step of our daily : one like a bench, to figure out our time sit, the second like a table and the last just like an empty structure with an hamac to sleep. Collaboration and reflexion were central in this exhibition in order to build our daily like a creation.
