“Education must be a project of responsibility and vision.
We must be responsible in order to build a place that is solid and efficient over time. We must be visionaries, knowing that architecture can be one of the most important forms of education that exist.” AF

To imagine a landscape-building.
To imagine a sequence of spaces made of perceptions and capable of belonging to its territory.
To imagine a building, a real place for meetings and training.
Imagine a device that communicates with light, that measures time and that can accompany the different moments of life.
A central pathway that brings student life on stage through its courtyard. A place that opens up to the green and to the surrounding landscape.
A topography that offers multiple spatial opportunities without constraining their uses. Informal workspaces that animate the distribution and colonize the courtyard.
A terrace that offers us the opportunity to share the landscape.
