the architectural reconstruction project of lycee jean moulin in revin, france is to be
completed by off architecture in association with duncan lewis scape architecture
and jeans giacinto. located within a vast and undulating terrain with many curves,
the architects want to install the new building into the topography of the landscape.
they will utilize the constraints of the slope, so the school is elevated and recedes upwards,
creating a pattern of movement. through incorporating the architecture into hilly surroundings,
they want to ensure that the
users of this new college will benefit from the natural qualities
of the surrounding environment.
the project is set to be completed for 2012.
