La Fontaine Sports Complex 14 Rue Pierre Kohlmann, 92160 Antony archi5 + Tecnova Architecture, 2018 Situated to the south of Paris in the town of Antony, with a p opulation of 60 000, the La Fontaine sports centre appears as a satin- finish monolith with a crystalline, faceted metal surface. The community, located only about 10 km from the Eiffel Tower, wanted a multifunctional sports and cultural venue that would serve both public and academic uses and be accessible in different ways. Archi5 and Tecnova Architecture developed a striking cubic form with high recognition value. It makes a bold statement in what is a heterogeneous environment consisting of highrise blocks, housing strips and single-family houses. The rise and fall of t riangular and rectilinear folded surfaces suggests an abstract mountain range. This h ermetic impression is strengthened by the standing-seam sheet-metal cladding that encloses the s tructure on all sides, including the roof. Corrosion-resistant c opper, aluminium, and tin alloys mean that the facade becomes increasingly matt in the course of time, but that the golden colour tone is retained.

The dramatic staging reaches its culmination in a gorge-like incision which extends through almost the entire length of the two-storey volume. This constructional slit, which the architects refer to as a “canyon”, has a number of functions. It interlocks the 5200 m² development with the adjoining green urban spaces and ensures that it receives adequate n atural light. It also creates a functional division between the public club areas and the sports hall on the north side used by the various local schools. These two sections of roughly equal size are bound together by a joint foyer from which all sporting areas are centrally accessible. If required, however, the individual halls can also function inde-

pendently, since each of them possesses its own changing rooms and separate entrances. A door with access control facilitates trouble- free school operations. From the outside, too, the sports centre reveals a subtle permeability. What at first looks like shading on the metal sheeting turns out to be minute quadratic perforations that form cloud-like clusters on the skin of the building and lend it a delicate lightness. Immediately adjoining this, translucent expanded metal mesh elements permit a further incidence of light, and transparent glass surfaces near the floor allow direct views of the sporting events. PP
