Proville Mediatheque | Tank | Architecture


France_Proville Mediatheque TANK Architectes.

Called La Médiateque de Proville, the building has a metalic frame clad in wood that will turn grey as it ages.

Large aluminium windows admit lots of natural light and the roof can be used as a terrace for reading outdoors.


The new mediatheque of Proville has to open onto the village and become a place of exchange and culture, a public library and a surprising and enthusiastic place inviting everyone to the pleasure of reading.


Create a contemporary architecture dealing with the environment and the existing elements.




The new spaces created are offering changing atmospheres and lighting effects due to large surfaces of glass and different partitions, patios and nice places where to take time to read, views on the church tower and the trees around.

Over roofs and terraces have been thought in wood which turns grey with the years.



The balance between town and nature is reached with an environmental approach: large picture windows to take advantage of the natural supplies of heat, and respiring partitions with systematic outside thermic insulation.
