Chapuis Royer Architectes Diderot University Restaurant Grenoble Campus

Chapuis Royer Architectures designed Diderot University Restaurant for the institution’s Grenoble campus, home to a number of emblematic architectural projects dating back to the early 1960s which are now protected twentieth-century heritage sites. The new building fits into this context with the intention of enriching the area’s architectural vocabulary and reinforcing the dialogue between existing buildings on the site.

Chapuis Royer Architectures Multimedia library Montbonnot Saint-Martin

The multimedia library and cultural centre designed by Chapuis Royer Architectures in Montbonnot Saint-Martin, near Grenoble, France, revitalises the historic 13th-century priory of Saint-Martin. Concrete and corten steel are the materials the architects use to work on the site, which is a particularly complicated one in terms of its topography and wealth of existing historic and architectural constructions. The result is thorough restoration of these existing constructions with a new, boldly contemporary expansion that fits harmoniously into its surroundings and establishes a dialogue between the new, the old and the natural landscape around them.
