ACCESSIBILITY AND
SUSTAINABILITY
The building stands alone and vehicles are kept to the side
and screened by planting and landscaping walls. Visitors
walk up to the building, much like climbers experiencing
the glaciers grandeur. Enjoyment of the exterior spaces is
encouraged, focused on accessibility and universal design.
Pedestrian paths, ramps and decks are built from local
wood and their forms steer the approach of visitors up to
the building. Staff facilities such as workshop, garage and
technical rooms are located so that they are not visible from
the approach.
A clear and straightforward palette of largely local materials
was chosen for the building including larch boarding, turf roof
and landscaping walls of rock. The nearby forest will become
apparent in the buildings texture.

WRAP MUSIC
Basalt Architecture discuss their new Paris
Conservatoire Claude Debussy, defined by
its external cloak of perforated copper which
comes to life with motorised, folding brise soleil
shutters.
Located between two high-rise buildings, the conservatory
stands at the interface between architectural scripts
linked to the citys built heritage on the edge of the 17th
arrondissement. To the south, Haussmann style buildings
look across at social housing of a more recent period.
Given its appearance and location, it is in constant dialogue with the city.

REACHING

COPPERCONCEPT.ORG21
The arms of the theatre are raised up to the sky in invocation, for a prayer, as
a gesture of hope and grace.
TRANSVERSE SECTION
ENTRY LEVEL
OPENABLE ROOF
On the outside, the theatres silhouette is characterised
by three general aspects: volumes, masonry ribs, and an
openable roof. From the volumes profile, two very distinct
parts emerge. The first belongs to the Elizabethan theatre
and sets the height of the building at 12 metres. The second
belongs to the 18 metre high scenic tower. Technical, systems
related and symbolic requirements make it the highest
panoramic point.
22 COPPER ARCHITECTURE FORUM 38/2015
When the theatre roof is open, the view from the tower
includes the interior of the theatre. Masonry ribs in the outer
walls characterise the volumes of the theatre and scenic
tower. On the outside, they indicate the rhythm of the modular
indoor structure. They are needed to absorb the pressure
that the open wings of the roof exert on the walls below in
order to counteract the force of northerly winds.
COPPER CONTEXT
Selection of the material for the roof wings - green prepatinated copper - was always guided by the nearby Cathedral
of St. Mary: a mountain of dark bricks in the historic city
centre, from which rise towers with their spires. Tall and thin,
and copper clad, the spires appear like sensitive antennas
seeking out even the faintest theological signal transmitted to
the world. By the same analogy, the open wings of the theatre
act like radar, with their rhomboid structures as receivers not so much of magnetic fields but rather the infinite spiritual
shades of our inner singularity.

CIVIC PRIDE
This beautifully executed municipal building
in Lyon, France - for the safekeeping of the
Rhne Departments history - is an assured
reconciliation between the technical demands of
document conservation and a cultural drive for
public accessibility, described by its designers
gautier+conqut.
Little by little, France's departmental authorities are
rediscovering their heritage and, consequently, their archives.
Archives represent the collective memory of a department
and the buildings housing them become showcases. We have
moved away from technical and empirical archiving towards
a more publicly accessible methodology, located in the city
centre and with user-friendly environments.

A HOUSE WITH
MANY DOORS
Brass is a defining element - both inside and out
- for this new London cultural and community
complex, described here by architects Lifschutz
Davidson Sandilands.
The JW3 is a new, award-winning community centre to serve
the Jewish population in London. It aims to bring together
the organisations many and diverse activities into a single
building - a meeting point for Jews and non-Jews alike. The
proposition of a house with many doors neatly sums up
a central challenge of JW3: to create an attractive place
for all Londoners interested in creativity; a building that is
cool irrespective of whether it is used by grandparents or
grandchildren.

PATINATED BRASS
JW3 uses a restrained palette of materials, with patinated
brass bringing a warmth to the exterior of the building where
it contrasts with cast stone and brickwork all durable
materials that are common to the area and found in Londons
most appealing civic buildings. This is continued internally
where brass details have been used in tactile locations such
as the ironmongery, handrails and the main bar.

SUSTAINABILITY IN PRACTICE
Along with a requirement to achieve a BREEAM Excellent
rating, the client was keen from the outset to create a
highly sustainable building. We also felt the buildings
use leant itself as an educational tool in its own right, to
teach children about the varying aspects of approaching
life in a sustainable manner. It was also of foremost
importance that a healthy, calm environment was created
for the children. The cross-laminated timber structure
provided the perfect combination of creating a warm,
tactile interior, whilst also using a natural, sustainable
product that could structurally achieve the clear roof
volumes required to ensure the mezzanines spaces were
not compromised.
The specification of all materials was carefully
considered. Materials were chosen that are renewable,
have low embodied energy and a minimal carbon footprint
criteria that the copper alloy easily met - whilst also
creating a vapour-open, breathable building fabric
with high air-tightness. This ensured that a high indoor
air quality was achieved by minimising or eliminating
products which emit low level toxicity. The design stage
BREEAM assessment achieved a high score of 82.2%, with
material and pollution sections achieving a 100% score.
CARBON INNOVATION
WITH COPPER
With the second of their projects for the
University of Edinburgh, Malcolm Fraser
Architects begin by focusing on sustainability.
As a world-class interdisciplinary research and teaching
facility focused on key climate related challenges facing
society, it was important that The Edinburgh Centre
for Carbon Innovation (ECCI) demonstrated the highest
sustainability credentials. It has been designed to achieve
an exceptionally low energy demand, in particular given that
it involves the refurbishment of an existing and protected
historic building. ECCI has achieved BREEAM Outstanding at
design stage. This is the first refurbished or listed historic
building to achieve a BREEAM Outstanding rating (with the
construction stage confirmation awaited).

BRONZE HEART
The ECCI involved a major alteration and extension of the
protected Old High School building, Infirmary Street. The
brief included consideration of adjoining buildings and
proposals to reinvigorate the land within the High School
Yards, to the boundary of Infirmary Street at the front and the
enclosed space of Surgeons Square to the rear. High School
Yards has always been a significant architectural site and
has gone through many incarnations since its beginnings as
Blackfriars Monastery from 1230.
Due to the piecemeal fashion of the many changes that had
occurred over the years, the existing building as a whole
was lacking a sense of cohesion and its circulation was
not clear. By removing the linking stair that connected
the two significant front and rear buildings, it has been
possible to create a generous central heart and circulation
space. From this atrium, all accommodation spaces have a
direct connection and their presence is visually legible. In
response to the clients brief, this circulation space is a focus
for interaction between a variety of building users and will
provide informal break out space for small post graduate
student groups, staff and businesses.
