"Morphogenesis of an urban hall"
I created this project taking the time into account about the evolution of the buildings in the part of the city which were built by successive layers, like a palimpsest. The quest of complementarity could be expressed through the creation of the symmetry of the extension. This new element fixed on the submarine base will be like a right hand in this quarter evolution. In this way, changing the viewpoint on this military base, beyond its military interests highlight their uncommon spaces. In a morphological aspect, reusing its monumental quality to make this extension a cathedral of light. Here I do not think in square meters but in cubic meters and take this template as a starting point.
At the urban scale, the project will be a signal to enhance a new submarine base entry, clearer in the new organization of the quarter in link with the new maritime museum and the Citée du Vin. The implantation of this monolithic block requires a strong connection with the ground with a stable base, creating a transition between a park and the dock area. This new axis enables sculpting the monolith to design an urban hall, a new confluence space where everything is possible.
