Info

The studio embarked on its first collaborative project with architect Rudy Ricciotti, creating original façade designs using high-performance concrete. The agency developed a system of parametric molds composed of complex, unique patterns, while incorporating select fixed connection points to ensure reversibility and interchangeability. This approach represents a highly refined and uncommon design practice, where a monolithic façade showcases varying configurations to avoid repetitive graphics.

Jean Bouin Stadium in Paris is a large-scale project where the concrete structure, defying the material’s typical nature, serves as a delicate veil over the stadium. Triangular molds generate curves and counter-curves, creating a motif that transitions from porous concrete cells to impermeable, glass-filled concrete cells. The design begins with more open patterns at the base and gradually closes toward the ceiling.
