The elegance of glazed terracotta tiles.
The extension to Le Tronchet town hall is distinguished by the use of glazed terracotta tiles for its facades. This natural, glazed cladding is both delicate and luminous, creating a subtle dialogue between the existing building and its surroundings. The terracotta finish enhances the architecture of the site, while emphasizing the building's silhouette and blending harmoniously with the landscape, which changes with the seasons.

The project to renovate and extend Le Tronchet town hall is part of an initiative to improve the operation and appeal of the town center, and is accompanied by the creation of a town hall square facing the Meleuc river, bringing together a range of facilities including the town hall, library, post office and market hall. The extension to the town hall, with its simple, sober massing, develops around the existing building in dialogue and contrast, transforming each facade into a main façade and point of entry to the site. The extension's facades feature a white mineral volume, faced with natural and glazed brick slabs to create a delicate, luminous layout that emphasizes the silhouette and material of the existing town hall, while at the same time enhancing the landscape and its seasonal character.
