Antoine de Ruffi School / TAUTEM Architecture + bmc2 architectes

Housing 22 classrooms and common areas, this mineral monolith features strict geometry and spectacular volumes. Its light-colored concrete façades are sculpted, and the openwork of this thickness forms a colonnade on the port side and a grand staircase on the city side, creating the interplay of light and shadow in its embrasures. In contrast to the building’s envelope, the interiors are warm and comfortable thanks to the use of color and wood.
