The ground floor is home to shops, a learning centre, a university restaurant and an amphitheatre, and caters for students, residents, employees and visitors alike. The campus has an architecture that is open to all types of education. The use of a 100% wood post and beam structure allows the spaces to evolve according to the uses and destinations. Two gardens in the heart of the block, densely planted, are particularly coveted oases of biodiversity.

Based on climatological studies, fine-tuning the morphology of the building made it possible to protect against the wind while gaining in luminosity, particularly in the heart of the blocks. Carbon weight, bioclimatic qualities, aesthetics and cost of materials, site logic, building reversibility: all these criteria dictated the construction choices.

Natural ventilation is encouraged by the bi-orientation of the flats and the opening of the stairwells. Photovoltaic plants are deployed on the roofs of the campus and the two towers.
