The Babel+Prado agency delivered a Widely Ventilated Parking Lot (PSLV) to Saint-Genis-Laval (Rhone) in 2023, ie a relay park of 26,000 m² SP in R+ 8. The mixed steel-concrete structure rests on the new Saint. – Genis-Laval metro station – Lyon Sud Hospital. The courtyard was covered by Gantois Architecture based on an image created by the artist Marin Kasimir.
Context
As part of the commissioning of the metro B extension, the Saint-Genis-Laval – Hôpital Lyon Sud station is located in the parking lot of the Center Hospitalier Lyon Sud, west of Chemin du Grand Revoyet, in sector. is undergoing rapid change. The Vallon de Saint-Genis-Laval project is actually becoming a completely new district. An important metropolitan project that will offer an exceptional living environment by 2035 just 15 minutes from Lyon.
Parking lot and eco-responsible building
The Park and Ride Park, built by Babel+Prado above the metro station Saint-Genis-Laval – Lyon Sud-Hospital for the master SYTRAL (Common Transport Union for the Rhône and the Lyon agglomeration), aims to facilitate connections and optimize the flow of travelers.
Part of a sustainable approach, the photovoltaic production of the structure makes it possible to reduce the carbon footprint of the park and ride facility, with rainwater and planters on the different floors are also recovered to allow watering of the courtyard garden and the green. a roof
Finally, the building offers natural light and views of the landscape through the golden filter of its facade as well as of the courtyard garden, in the heart of the building. The mesh wrapping the facades is translucent and allows natural air and light to pass through while camouflaging the view of cars from passersby.
High-tech park and ride facility
The P+R or “Park and Ride” car park, built above the Saint-Genis-Laval station, contains 925 parking spaces and more than 500 bicycle spaces. ” Built on deep pile foundations, the structure presented many technical challenges, including the rcreation of curved sails with the cra meal of‘elliptical ramp made freestanding, mixed structure beton – steel to ensure great stabilitye to thethe work and architectural appearance implying a high quality of finish with all the concrete in ready facing, some of which is tinted stone color. », explains the Léon Grosse company.
Gantois Architecture & Building Services
The Rythmic range was born from an alliance of skills in the field of punching, cutting and folding. The formats, lines and shapes offered by this range are limited only by the imagination of architects.
Here the architects started from an original image signed by the artist Marin Kasimir for unique and original courtyard facades.
” The external coating consists of ELISTIC cassettes from the Rhytmic range, which make it possible to create, between the diameter of the hole, the middle distance and the distribution of the perforation, the effects of transparency and contrast desired by the architects. Then we produced the ready-to-install formats for careful aesthetics. », explains Stéphane Pouyot, Director of Architecture and Construction Activity of Gantois.
” Each study is accompanied by its calculation note “, he emphasizes. For an amazing result!
” Among our collections, the Rythmic Elistic range allows projects to be carried out on all flat metal supports. The perforation uses the pixel of the image proposed by the architectural agency. The greater the perforation density, the more accurate the image. », continues Stéphane Pouyot.
Available in formats of 3000 x 1500 mm maximum, this support is an ideal element for facade coverings, balustrades or simply for signals.
” The technical and commercial team supported the project managers throughout this project to guarantee its complete success. », concludes Stéphane Pouyot.
Finally, note that all Gentian materials used in this project are recyclable.
