Archi-Folies, the world of culture and the world of sports get together
  • School life

Bringing together the worlds of sport and culture is the ambition of the Archi-Folies project, which will mobilize the national schools of architecture and sports federations around a common goal: Paris 2024. Explanations.

"The Archi-Folies is a golden opportunity to bring together the worlds of sport and culture," said Rima Abdul-Malak, Minister of Culture, on November 21, at the official launch of the project at the Grande Halle de la Villette in Paris. Gold, like the metal of the most prestigious of medals... How better to define this project, which brings together, on the occasion of the Cultural Olympiad for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the twenty national schools of architecture and twenty national sports federations around the same gesture: to design pavilions that will be installed on the site of the park of La Villette during the competition and are then intended to be reinstalled on the territory of the various schools?

Laurent Mouly, Sophie Cambrillat and Adrien Henocq will lead this project in Normandy. The school will have to honor racket sports such as tennis, badminton or table tennis. This pavilion will have to be dismantled to be rebuilt in the park of ENSA Normandie.

A call for donations in the form of sponsorship is launched in order to be able to concretize this beautiful project by clicking HERE
