Elementary school at Le Grand Lemps France / Brenas Doucerain Architectes

In the heart of the village of Grand Lemps, between 2 adobe heritage buildings installed at right angles around a courtyard, we designed a bridge building, seeking to connect, organize, protect. As a fashion designer would dare his fabric, carefully, choosing the right thread, we mended a distended fabric.

Nordic Educational and Sports Center of la Feclaz / Brenas Doucerain Architectes

Andreas Luco — Wed, 10 Apr 2024 03:00:00 +0000

Architectural description. Nestled on the plateau of Revard at 1400 meters above sea level, the center is situated in a clearing, occupied by cross-country ski trails in winter and pastures in summer. Simple and monolithic, the choice of a compact volume based on a square figure was imposed. Topped with a large three-pitched roof and a half-hipped roof on the side facing the ski slopes, the building is protected from the weather by wide roof overhangs, inspired by those of the Bauges barns, where wooden struts allow for greater cantilevers and low eaves minimize the impact of the structure on the scale of pedestrians or skiers.

Municipal Technical Center / Brenas Doucerain Architectes

This project deploys itself in the great landscape of North-Isere, rationally adapted to the slope. The site, a large sloping meadow facing north, turns its back to the village. The vegetal environment is its quality, the topography its constraint. The program requires large and compact built volumes to store machinery and materials, such as those reserved for the surrounding agricultural activity.

Mountain Hotel / Brenas Doucerain Architectes

At the gates of the natural area of les Hauts Plateaux du Vercors in the French Alps, three athletes of high level in biathlon sent us to design a mountain hotel with a sporting vocation and likely to ensure their reconversion. The municipality of Corrençon-en-Vercors offers them a site on the banks of the Vercors highlands reserve, 2 steps from the Nordic ski area. The order was fuzzy and the budget tight, the project slowly matured and allowed to test a stammering program, to concretize a will remained in the state of abstraction in the spirit of these Olympic medalists.

Nursery School at Roches de Condrieu / Brenas Doucerain Architectes

The site of the project is that of the courtyard of the current school group located in the center of town, dense tissue organized around the place of arms. The outdoor area reserved for elementary school children is closed between a dead end in the west and the existing Jules Ferry building in L to the east and north. Two beautiful plane trees inhabit this space.
