the futuristic-looking ‘techno prisme’ is a storage depot designed by brisac gonzalez architects located in aurillac’s city center in france. the building is positioned next to a multi-purpose hall, ‘le prisme’, which was also completed by the studio. a seven and a half meter façade consists of 50×50 cm aluminum panels that vary in their color and shape, gradually opening in a bloom-like manner. beneath the exterior structure is a standard steel frame with prefabricated concrete panels. the insulation is installed on the outside of the volume to avoid cold bridging and maximize a stable interior climate.
