A new creative urban space is set to be built in the heart of Nantes, France and will include the construction of a new college dedicated to the fine arts. Franklin Azzi Architecture has been tasked to design the glorious new project, called Alstom Halles, which is composed of a giant glass and steel structure that covers the college underneath like a giant umbrella or greenhouse. Sliding glass walls on the ground floor can be opened up to the plaza to create an interactive and daylit space for students and visitors alike.
