Jean-Marc Lamunière,

Historical Art and Architecture Studies

This project consists of two buildings, one occupied by the printing machinery, and the other by the binding department. At the front there is an ample free space, with parking lots, and extensive facilities for various types of traffic: also a railway siding, so that rail trucks can load and unload directly at these works. The external aspect of these buildings is characterised by the contrast between the metallic structure, which is clearly visible, and the curtain wall material. In addition the emergency ladder, which runs externally, has been used as a sculptural and architectural motif.
