A renovation project And expansion
Since 2020, the Académie has been the subject of a major renovation and extension project designed by the Atelier du Pont agency. The aim was to make the originally temporary buildings permanent, extend the space, create new infrastructure for the school and administration, and open up the site to the neighbourhood. The hall has been freed up to host convivial and artistic activities, and the greening of the site encourages biodiversity. The project has also given priority to the re-use of materials: 70% of the materials used were re-used, and 90% of the deconstruction materials were re-used or recycled.
