University Hospital, bd. Gambetta, Rouen
- Within a "chaotic" environment, the university appears as a unified equipment, a compact urban campus, an identifiable group within its components, simply and softly connected. The university is organized as a simple system of independent buildings, which confer an autonomy of realization and management to each of them
- A single address is visible from the city: the square onto which are anchored the three most symbolic university buildings. The group of buildings, research & Lecture theaters, frames in the background the Library. Those three buildings surrounding the square create a "call" that "responds" to the Chapel axis thus defining a powerful virtual connection between the hospital and the University. The square closed by those spaces forms the University antechamber, allowing the entrance's space "mise en scène" thus becoming a true public place.
- The three edifices are federated by the central building, heart of the group, which contains at once the lobby and the Library-Administrative Bldg.: it lays at all flows' crossings. The main lobby opens with all its width, and through the entrance square, toward the city
