Architects of a world in motion
Representing the sequencing of the genome, a rhythm of dark, reflective vertical stripes forms the functional and technical restructuring of the biology laboratory at the University of Clermont-Ferrand. This sequence makes the existing monolithic volumes disappear, links the landscape with the built environment and reveals different elements according to the light and the time of day.
