Crèche 24 berceaux – Palais de l’AlmaALM
Île-de-France
A 24-place nursery built within the grounds of the Palais de l'Alma, a building under the French Presidency of the Republic next to the Quai Branly museum, in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. Designed by Atelier Régis Roudil Architectes and completed in March 2022, it is the first building in bio-based materials commissioned for a presidential palace. Its 308 m² are resolved with a symmetrical arrangement of larch and fir glulam post-and-beam structure, light timber frame enclosures and rammed earth walls that form part of the façade, brace the building and provide thermal inertia and natural humidity regulation for children's comfort. The green roof rises at the centre to form a skylight that introduces natural light and allows natural ventilation in summer. The project received the Detail Award 2024 and the AR Emerging (Peter Davey Prize) 2025, and was nominated for the Mies van der Rohe 2024 award, as an example that timber and raw earth can enter the most protected institutional heritage.
