Inserted in this large garden which is the Domaine de Nazareth, the EHPAD benefits from a privileged living environment. We do not want to build a building that would deprive us of part of the park, so we decided to bury it. It must be admitted that our task was made easier, it is an archive building, for which the lighting and ventilation needs are quite basic. We have established it as an extension of the mound where there is a remarkable grove whose trees reach up to 14 meters high. The construction will be placed sufficiently far back so as not to disturb the existing trees.

The garden is restored above the building, users will be able to walk around as before. The only clues that reveal its existence are the skylights, these truncated tubes that stand out like sculptures. The skylights are not only of aesthetic interest, they also allow natural light to enter the archive room (they are oriented to the north to avoid direct light).
