Article source: AASB The Olivier Métra school in Paris occupies a plot between two forms of opposite housing: brick of the thirties and small private houses with their garden. It is overlooked by large recent residences on the hill of Belleville. In this narrow and long ground, the multipurpose school is posed in the complexity of the urban ground declining a unique material, the pre-patinated zinc with standing seam. He unifies the equipment and takes the particular tones of Paris. While maintaining a neutrality in the heterogeneous faubourien fabric, the school releases a structured space for the playgrounds and directs the classes in the morning sun. The building breaches the villas. Freed from the party, he turns at an angle in the curve of the street Olivier Métra. The southern light slips into the gap, to the playgrounds. The mezzanine device raises the ground floor and playgrounds installed in the slope. It stages the entrance and illuminates the service rooms below.
