The key idea of the project and its main variations - The Maison des Services Latécoère is simple, says Xavier Gonzalez: "It is the pavilion in the park, which brings people together, where they want to go. It's like a party pavilion. It's a place to connect.” The tea pavilion typology served as inspiration for this wood-frame design. A hymn to the plasticity of larch and spruce, this low-carbon project is frugal and low-tech. A simple application of RT2012, it has been designed like a Japanese pavilion in a garden, echoing the surrounding park. With this in mind, the choice of wood as the construction material meant that the inherent constraints of wood were taken into account from the outset, without technological subterfuge. Every structural, technical and functional element has its place, and everything is made of wood: beams, posts, floors, joists, terraces, roofing, facade, joinery and sunshades.
