Built for The University of Paris, this 35,000 sq.m space is located in the heart of eastern Paris and will be used for art, literature and languages, and human and social sciences. The structure will rehouse the University of Sorbonne Nouvelle and is surrounded by existing buildings. The goal of this design is to support a place of learning and be suited for individual work, community life and a large number of students. It is considered an innovative, ecological block within the University grounds.

In the center, the library has been planned as a unifying element. Triangular in shape, it forms a courtyard – a central corridor and hub of university life that is surrounded by connected buildings.

The building and library are open to researchers, as well as the public.
