The Viennese architects coophimmelb(l)au were commissioned to build the new Musée des Confluence. coophimmelb(l)au designed a UFO that hovers like a silvery cloud over the mouth of the Saône and Rhône rivers. This daring landmark architecture - similar to the Elbphilharmonie concert hall in Hamburg or the capital's airport in Berlin - turned out to be a spectacular multi-million-dollar disaster. But the image gain quickly outweighed these disadvantages. Access to the museum is via a beautiful park along the banks of the Saône, which invites visitors to take a relaxing stroll. #architektur #architekturfotografie #architecture #architecturephotography #modernarchitecture #bnw #urban #urbanism #urbanphotography #lyon #france #museum

Speaking of drained brains and France, here’s a gentle reminder from our @CultureDesk of why America doesn’t actually have a Champagne business.

Last week, Aix Marseille University in France offered funding to American scientists who feel like their work is being censored. It’s already seeing great interest from researchers at NASA, Yale and Stanford, and the program may extend through more universities across Europe. “We are witnessing a new brain drain,” Éric Berton, Aix Marseille University’s president, said in a press release. Here’s more from @emanuelmaiberg for @404mediaco

The most spectacular residential building in Lyon #Confluence is certainly the Tour Ycone, the filigree residential tower by Pritzker Prize winner Jean Nouvel. With its soft colors and blurred, almost indistinct silhouette, the Tour Ycone nestles into the post-industrial urban landscape between the #Rhône and #Saône rivers. The tower appears to be loosely assembled from fragile scaffolding and rectangular frames. It looks as if a light breeze could bring this upwardly divergent house of cards crashing down. But a perforated, loosely attached roof forces the airy shape of the tower into a solid form.

The B6 office building by Christian Kerez attracts particular attention in the Confluence district. The sober building is based on a simple grid formed by concrete columns that support the ceilings and floor slabs. A band of windows closes off the storeys to the outside without appearing like a boundary. This is because it is not the windows but the supporting concrete columns that close off the façade. They are the outer layer of the façade and thus create a permeable connection between the interior and urban space. The load-bearing structure becomes the architecture.
The construction, which is heavy at ground level and becomes lighter as it rises towards the sky, interprets the classic order of columns in a sophisticated way. From the rustic Doric column to the Ionic and the slender Corinthian column. An ironic gesture! Because unlike the classical columns of the 18th and 19th centuries, which adorn the magnificent buildings all over Lyon, the concrete columns of the B6 are not façade decorations at all, but supporting elements of the architecture. It is astonishing how much care has been taken in the execution of the columns. The columns of the lower three storeys are prefabricated from tamped concrete. The columns of the two middle floors are made of vibrated concrete, as are the ceilings and parapets, while the columns of the upper three floors are made of spun fiber-reinforced concrete. #architektur #architekturfotografie #architecture #architecturephotography #modernarchitecture #bnw #urban #urbanism #urbanphotography #lyon #france #cube #concrete

The architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron has developed an architectural and environmental concept for the redevelopment of the Confluence district. In order to create a lively district, a team of six architects was put together on the basis of this concept. Their different styles were intended to create a varied and liveable urban landscape. And they have indeed succeeded in creating a fruitful relationship between the most diverse thinking and design principles. Herzog & de Meuron have also built a residential tower without corners. Its slightly swaying façade surprises with its elegant curves. #architektur #architekturfotografie #architecture #architecturephotography #modernarchitecture #bnw #urban #urbanism #urbanphotography #lyon #france

During the 2024's quinquennial scientific roadmap of @cnes, a specific group worked on setting recommendations to decrease the #environmental footprint of #space #science activities.
Our correspondence to @NatureAstronomy highlights the efforts of the french space research to move towards sustainability. It relies on two complementary methods: decarbonisation and frugality.
