Year-round Fresh Air at Day Camp

Architectural Comment
Tectoniques architects

Architecture is cultural medium connected to social infrastructure. A building is a venue for experiential learning about social values. The French architectural agency Tectoniques designed a day camp for school-age children when classes are not in session. On a pastoral hillside, overlooking the Rhône valley, this building was established with a functional priority. This community building shows its adaptability, smart detailing and a connection with nature.
