Inaugurated in 1886, became the National Conservatory of Music, Dance and Dramatic Art, provides initial and pre-professional training for young artists. Within the Boutonnet district, in the heart of the former Grasset maternity hospital, rehabilitated for the occasion and extended by a modern glass construction, the conservatory will benefit from a total floor area of nearly 9800 m2.
The architect
Alain Bretagnolles (Architecture-Studio)
designed the new conservatory which offers a plurality of spaces adapted to different practices:
-
13 music training rooms.
-
57 classrooms.
-
10 collective practice rooms.
-
7 dance studios.
-
1 studio dedicated to theatre.
-
1 studio for body arousal.
To cope with acoustic complexity of the building, AVA Acoustic was hired. Floating slabs with FZH-Sylomer® floating slab jack up mounts are used for slab decoupling.
