REDEVELOPEMENT OF ST POL DE LEON CITY CENTER
« Environnement » arturbain fr - first prize
The new redevelopments articulate with a system of ramps the Cathedral's square with the town hall’s place and the one of the market. The continuity of this new set is ensured by the water current which runs from the gold drop to the water mirror. The cloister, a shady place punctuated with golden blazes of light, is a space of contemplation, of peacefulness. A bright garden on a bank is made of islands detached from the graminae clump, whose shapes adapt itself to the vegetals growth. It ends on a big water mirror. Sometimes waved by the wind and the rain, it reflects the town’s figure which the Cathedral overlook. With Philippe Madec, 2003-2005.
