The Jean Macé School Group Extension highlights a commitment to traditional building techniques by using 800 m² of load-bearing rammed earth walls composed of unmodified, unstabilized raw earth.
The integration of the extension was influenced by urban planning regulations, the plot shape, and the existing school’s symmetrical typology, leading to the development of three main volumes.
The project's design not only adds classrooms and a refectory but also involves creating structured outdoor spaces including terraces, walkways, and vegetable gardens on the upper floor.
By respecting the existing alignment and ground floor level of the school building, the design promotes a seamless integration of the new extension with the old structure.
