French Building Designs : Architecture
Architectural Developments across France, Europe
Building Designs in FranceDiriger aux Bâtiments de FrancaisWe've selected what we feel are the key examples of French Building Designs. We aim to include buildings that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both. We cover completed buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across France. The focus is on contemporary French buildings but information on traditional buildings is also welcome. Recent additions to this page: Médiathèque Romain Rolland, Paris Philippe Gazeau architecte  picture : Philippe Ruault Médiathèque Romain Rolland - 16 Jul 2012 The Romainville multimedia library is located in the heart of a dormitory town that is being completely renovated. The town planners wanted to open up the district by fragmenting the housing blocks, creating a central plain to provide a large park and two facilities, including the multimedia library which is intended to act as an attractive magnet on a neighbourhood level. The new building floats between two 'flying carpets'. Musée des Beaux-arts Rheims, northeast France - 30 May 2012 David Chipperfield Architects  image © David Chipperfield Architects The new Musée des Beaux-arts is situated on the periphery of a long green space, arising from the town fortifications, between the old and new town. The Gallo- Roman gate and the modernist market hall, located in its vicinity, are evidence of Reim’s architectural history from antiquity to modern times. An excavation site with mediaeval findings is situated at the site of the new museum. Musée de la Romanitée Narbonne, southern France - 17 May 2012 Foster + Partners  image : Foster + Partners Following an international competition, Foster + Partners, working with museum designer Adrien Gardere, is designing a new museum for Roman artefacts in the city of Narbonne. As a vital Roman port, Narbonne has an impressive legacy of buildings, ancient relics and archaeological sites. The centrepiece of the museum is a collection of more than 1,000 ancient stone relief funerary blocks excavated nearby. Their display forms a natural barrier at the heart of the simple, rectilinear building, separating the public galleries from the more private restoration spaces. Visitors will be able to glimpse the work of the archaeologists and researchers through its mosaic of stone and light, and the flexible display framework allows the reliefs to be easily reconfigured and used as an active tool for learning. Musée des Beaux-arts Reims, north east France - 11 Apr 2012 X-TU, Architects  image from architects Competition for the Arts Museum of Reims Total floor area: 13,700 m² SHON Cost: 35,000,000 € Marseille Vieux Port Masterplan, southern France - 8 Mar Foster + Partners  image : Foster + Partners Marseille’s Vieux Port, one of the great Mediterranean ports, is about to be transformed. Work has started on Michel Desvigne's and Foster + Partners’ competition-winning masterplan for its regeneration. The project will reclaim the quaysides as a civic space, creating new informal venues for performances and events and removing traffic to create a safe, semi-pedestrianised public realm. We have 6 pages of French Building Design selections with links to hundreds of individual project pages.
