About this project

‘The aim of the new sports hall on the Trois Moulins industrial estate is to give a new identity to this heterogeneous environment. The building delimits the neighbouring area to the west, which is mainly characterised by industry, and opens up with a welcoming gesture to an environment that has remained natural to the east. The main functions, arena and trampoline hall, are organised within a large elliptical envelope. The windows, integrated into the horizontal slots, resemble the winding trajectory of a ball being kicked at full speed, projecting the image of a compact sports complex to the outside world.
