Conversion of Grand Htel-Dieu de Lyon, Social Palace

A Humanitarian and Solidary Federation

By adressing the issue of the conversion of the grand htel-Dieu of Lyon, we questionned the definition of its heritage. More than a unique architectural complex, the htel-Dieu is the witness of the humanist tradition of Lyon, from charity to medical excellence. our project is centered around the notion of immaterial heritage refering to the meaning and the memory of this symbolic building. this approach aims to preserve and perpetuate this heritage in the 21st century city of Lyon. From an asylum giving shelter to the pilgrims and the sick to a reference for international medecine, the program living in the htel-Dieu has always kept its humanist and solidarity vocation. today, in order to allow an international efficient solidarity, we need to compose alliances and generate a coordinated effort between the associative network in Lyon, the pionniers of the humanitarian action, economic partners and the public. We wanted to develop a project of interactions and emulations to enable the emergence of major humanitarian projects in Lyon. the program for a humanitarian and Solidary Federation would be established in the courtyards network of the htel Dieu.

By installing the Federation in four out of nine courtyards, a continuous space is created on the ground floor, linking all the parallel aisles together. thereby, all the actors of the humanitarian project are interacting in the ground floor for the Federation where Work spaces are designed in the courtyards. a laminated timber structure lies on a concrete socle, enhancing two spatial layers : _on the ground floor, circulation and collective workspaces _on themezzanines, work cells and private offices the glass roof structure is animated and shaded by a sliding solar protection, which creates a variable rooftop and therefore a Fifth faade from the gallery.
