Offices and exhibition galleries - Nanterre (92)

Development of the Hauts-de-Seine Council of Architecture, Urbanism and the Environment (CAUE)

The headquarters of the CAUE 92 occupies the ground floor of the XTU agency building, located on the major axis of the city of Nanterre. The project is organised along the entire length of the building, in three interconnected spaces: the Workshops, the Offices and the Exhibition Gallery, which also serves as a conference room.

The high ceiling space allowed the creation of mezzanines and a footbridge to link the different spaces together.

The Exhibition Gallery is a central feature that can accommodate up to 150 people. It is modular and can host conferences for 20 to 60 people at the same time, while maintaining the theatre's scenography and the activity of a pop-up café on the Place de la Croisée side.
