Fine Arts Museum of Nantes
RFR's mission includes the conception and building of all the frame works, concrete and metal. We also designed the thermal and waterproof envelope (glazed facades, opaque metal cladding, slate and zinc roofs, and canopies), special glass works (panoramic lifts and suspended stone facade), and were in charge of the renovation process of the stone facades of the historical building.
The mineral reference also takes the shape of a monolithic curtain, either clad with stone siding or covered with a mineral stucco coating on rigid insulation boards.
Located on a privileged promenade between the Château des Ducs de Bretagne and the Jardin des Plantes, the Fine Arts Museum of Nantes stands up as an exceptional historical center.
The project involves the complete renovation of the Museum built in 1893, and the construction of a 4 300m² extention. These works will allow the museum to spread on a 19 000m² surface.
