The nursery project is part of the great project of Euralille and particularly in the island of St Maurice sector, built on the frame of the urban project of De Geyter.

She punctuates a pedestrian path consists of varied spaces, crossing the urban project. Included within a 100-unit operation, the crib lodge it on the ground floor, while affirming its status as backbone equipment, bordering the Place aux Maples.

Thus, the project of solving antagonism: Propose a bright area, looking onto the city, while preserving the privacy necessary for life that takes place there. A fully glazed facade was implemented, supporting a graphic and playful signage, to guess rather than see the inside of the crib. This duality resolved, the inserted volume is deformed, widening to absorb the different roughness of the situation encountered (level differences, existing structure, fluid network, etc.

These movements are utilized to animate the space, both visually and spatially specific work on the ceiling: white discs varying diameters espouse altimetry, creating an amazing landscape for the awakening of children. These undulations are at the ground level where a flexible resin was implemented, following a series of gentle curves, inviting various uses. The crèche and offers relaxed and fun areas, interfering between closed places such cocoons that are the dormitories, the kitchen or the baby feeding.

The equipment meets the expectations of the city in reducing energy needs, a consumption target of 50 kwh / m² / year.

The nature of the building led project management to retain HQE 4 priority themes of energy, reduction of water consumption, sustainability and waste management.
