Orange Campus in Lyon
20 Nov 2020
Orange Campus
Design: Hardel Le Bihan Architects and Hga-hubert Godet Architects
Location: 107, Rue Maurice Flandin, La Part-Dieu, Lyon
The Lacassagne telephone exchange is an emblematic building in the Part-Dieu district of Lyon. Built in 1972 by André Gutton, architect of public buildings and national monuments since the 1930s, it is part of the Orange group?s technical heritage. The operation to unite the regional staff of central?eastern France plans for the accommodation of 2,000 people on this unifying site.
The Orange Campus project by practices Hardel Le Bihan Architects and HGA-Hubert Godet Architects positions this remarkable building at the centre of the new Orange Campus, functioning efficiently to connect the three buildings (the existing exchange with its two new extensions) and opening up views from and towards each of these for maximum transparency with the city and to maximise light.
From an urban point of view, the project complies with plans for the urban renewal of the Part-Dieu district established by the AUC, respecting the original building. Positioned on the south-western edge of the district and seen from the train tracks and the wider landscape, the development forms a powerful landmark as a mark of this renewal.
Headquarters open to the city, to light and to the open air
The Lacassagne exchange naturally orchestrates the corner...
