Pierre Hebbelinck exhibited in Amiens - France

The Maison de l'Architecture of Picardie presents the exhibition Resultats de concours from October 15 till December 12th 2015 in Amiens.

 

Among the exhibited projects you will find the Cultural Centre of Montataire realised by the Atelier Pierre Hebbelinck in association with the Lille-based office HBAAT.

 

The project consists in the transformation, renovation, and extension of a Perret (1949) market building for a cultural centre housing a music school, a dance school, a broadcast room, and a recording studio.

 

The Perret brothers market building was magnified by liberating the original frames. Walking, waiting, and the practice of music are activities based in this slender concrete landscape bathed in natural light. The three facilities take advantage of the height of the central wing to become part of the core of the structure, spreading from one end to the other. The spaces between the frame and the program were liberated to become spaces for meeting and artistic expression that extend the urban space.
