International city of tapestry in Aubusson, France by Terreneuve architectesDecember 1st, 2016 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Terreneuve architectes The symbolic dimension of the International city of tapestry and woven art matches its ambition: going beyond conservation and exhibitions, preserving a living savoir-faire that is recognized by UNESCO as part of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity, and reestablishing Aubusson’s place in the contemporary creative landscape.

It has a new outer shell made of a combination of wooden strips (Douglas-fir from Limousine forests) and printed textile coverings evoking the raw materials of wood in the woodworker’s art and color in tapestry. With its international influence, the City’s calling is to become one of the main symbols of Aubusson. Its visibility in the city, and the concepts used in its entryway take into consideration the different types of people that interact with the structure.
