The project is based on a simple hypothesis: to provide the best working conditions and space management through the implementation of a simple and rigorous structure that allows for significant flexibility. Thus, the designs fit within the framework of existing supports while limiting the large span to a single intermediate support. The crossing structure exhibits a very high inertia and organizes the volume of the roof in which we proposed to incorporate the costume storage space.

The new building for the Studios of the Capitole Theatre is strongly characterized by its large scale. Here, we must find both architectural unity and a distinction that delicately integrates it into the cityscape and defines this part composed of industrial buildings. By offering better visibility to the urban unit thus formed, the building asserts itself through the quality of the storage spaces created and the diversity of functions it accommodates, ensuring its future adaptability. 

We propose to combine in the quality of use and in a functional way under a delicate envelope the different components of this mixed-use building. 

This building will provide the Capitole Theatre with multifunctional spaces commensurate with the quality of the performances it hosts.
