Hotel and restaurant trainees in Montpellier, France, are due to get a crash course in chic design appreciation. Italian architect Massimiliano Fuksas has designed the new Marianne hotel, catering, and tourism trade school.
Planned as a group of five sculptural objects, totaling 291,000 square feet, the school buildings will range in height from one to six stories, each one wrapped in a smooth metal skin. Partially exposed structural framework will create a diamond pattern on the curved exterior surfaces, while the building’s skin is made of triangular aluminum panels punctuated by triangular aluminum window frames with double glazing.
