Patio

Ambassadors’ houses are at the same time a space for official representation, which requires a functionality and efficiency, and a comfortable place for a family to live in. The volumes of the project are simple : the rectangular plan is reinforced by homogeneous façades and the central patio. On the ground floor, the four main units of the building are connected around the patio by a gallery. They are clearly identifiable : the reception hall, the ambassador’s family place, the minister’s suite and the services room.
