Lycée Jules Ferry

The Lycée Jules Ferry is an innovative educational complex occupying over 15,000 m2, designed as a horseshoe layout that includes two longitudinal wings for boys and girls surrounding a T-shaped central building with common facilities such as a dining hall, kitchen, and craft rooms, along with a kindergarten completing the axial composition. The quality of the secondary work is notable, featuring reliefs, pavement mosaics, and ironwork. The design emphasizes circulation and lighting, adhering to hygienist principles reminiscent of regional outdoor schools and sanatorium architecture. The structure reflects meticulous regionalist architecture, characterized by a bell tower with a clock and steeply pitched roofs.
