24 Hours in Nantes

On April 13 and 14, Franck Boutté, André-Marie (Director of Studies) and Alix Derouin (Director of Communications and Development) spent 24 hours in Nantes.

In the agenda : 

• A lecture given by Franck at architecture school Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Nantes, at the invitation of ARDEPA, as part of the Great Debate initiated by Nantes Métropole
• Discussions on current projects and competitions with the Grand Ouest office team in a makeshift seminar room following a power cut
• Visit (finally) of the Nantes office’s amazing new premises followed by a very enjoyable and delicious lunch with the team!

Atelier Franck Boutté has been developing its business in the west of France for more than 10 years. First of all, the studio was heavily involved in the development of the Ile de Nantes (as Samoa’s project manager, then as part of the UAPS team), then throughout the region, working on individual building projects or development programs.
