Project realized in eliminatory stages of the Concours des Beaux-Arts and for which we obtained the Prix Antoine-Nicolas de Bailly and the Prix Françoise Abella as we were finalists for the Grand Prix d'architecture des Beaux-Arts.
We conceived a cultural center in Japan that included three theaters, auditoriums, housing, and a multipurpose hall.
The entire project, drawn with graphite, gave it a strong and symbolic esthetic inspired by the Shoguns who were interesting to us because of their esthetic, cultural, historic, and symbolic aspects.
