Polychrome glazed terracotta sunscreen
Périphériques Architectes
Set in a courtyard, a nursery full of colour spans three floors on rue Frémicourt and on the boulevard de Grenelle in Paris. To protect the building, the architects of the agency Periphériques Architectes proposed a vibrant hymn to colour around a variation of the terracotta sunscreen Autan® of the Terreal range in bright and deep glazed shades.
According to Stéphane Razafindralambo, project manager: "The idea to glaze this part of the sunscreen on all four sides was born from this project. We approached Terreal and outlined with them a range of nine bright colours that matched our expectations and were technically feasible. The distribution of coloured elements is not random as we had originally envisaged. We designed a floral pattern, a bouquet of peonies, as a ‘tapestry
cartoon’ which was expanded.»
