The project sits in the middle of nature, just a few kilometers away from Lyon. A natural landscape with exceptional qualities that the project sought to preserve and enhance through efficient design. The stables project reinterprets the traditional codes of agricultural architecture through a contemporary use of wood and concrete.
The calm and silent writing of the building resonate with the beauty of the landscape. As a reminder of the surrounding forests, the structure, the porticoes and the louvres filter the light, bringing depth to the building and giving it a sense of serenity. Sustainability has been achieved through passive design. Despite the numerous constraints, the proposed plan enables natural ventilation and lighting.
The project stands out from conventional prefabricated stable by offering a tailor-made solution. The architecture, in a quest for simplicity, tries to fit in and not impose itself to its natural environment.
