Over the last 30 years, with his office Construire, he has realised several important cultural institutions in France: theatre Zingaro in Aubervilliers, the École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle-Les Ateliers in Paris, the Lieu Unique in Nantes, the Musée International des Arts Modestes in Sète, the Académie Fratellini in Saint-Denis and the Channel in Calais. This ‘producer’, far more constructor than architect, enables in each project an interpretative, experimental, vital architecture that beholds a strong ‘high human quality’. He has put his work in perspective in the book Construire autrement (2006).
