Lycée Eugène Delacroix

Education · by Jean Niermans · 1958

4 rue du Docteur Schweitzer, Drancy, France

The Lycée Eugène Delacroix, as the fourth high school in the department, reflects the expansion of high schools in suburban areas. This mixed establishment employs innovative construction techniques, including semi-heavy prefabrication with hollow brick panels produced off-site, allowing for rapid assembly in just 48 days for the initial phase. It draws references from the Lycée du Raincy, serving as a complementary structure, with decorative elements like mosaics and pilotis that evoke its predecessor. The school’s design showcases a blend of historical influences in its interior layout while also embracing contemporary construction methods, contributing to regional balance and artistic significance within the educational framework.
