Collège Cardinal Mercier by LT2A and OPEN ARCHITECTES

LT2A and OPEN ARCHITECTES have completed the new building for Collège Cardinal Mercier in 2023, covering 3000 m². Located in a densely wooded landscape, the design continues the site's legacy of independent pavilions with a shared identity through a limited material palette. The architecture asserts a contemporary language focused on sustainability, avoiding pastiche. Key suppliers include Knauf, Forbo, Peterson Tegl, and VMZINC. The project was led by Paul Emmanuel Lambert and Foucault Tiberghien, with structural engineering by ADEM Bureau d'étude. Photography by Utku Pekli.
