photo: Jeroen Meijer photo: Jeroen Meijer Mediatheque Villeurbanne Cours Amile Zola 247 69100 Villeurbanne The idea from the outset was to construct a central element of reference And this corresponds to the necessity the architect feels to find a 'backbone' in every project, so that people entering the building will have a chance to orient themselves It could be a shaft of light or a structural element The idea for the competition was to create a house made of empty space within the solid building, with connecting stairs winding around the void Then, little by little, Botta arrived at the final solution, perhaps less complex, but maybe also better considering the building's relatively small dimensions There are no direct references to illuminist or neoclassical architecture This space was born more of an intuition of light, of static reasoning - but also of agreements with the fire department, who forced the architect to put the tempered glass around the central void Project is public! 1988 Mario Botta City of Villeurbanne jpmm photo: Jeroen Meijer Take the metro to station Flachet, walk 200 meter to the west http://wwwmimoaeu/users/ying/guides/lyon/ 7
