Located in an area degraded by urban sprawl, the building responds to this non-place with an attitude of absolute introversion. The project is conceived as a glass box within a brick box.

The outer surface is treated as a skin of brickwork stretched over a concrete skeleton; the tensile structure, bare on the inside, is revealed on the outside at the start and top of the building. Large panels of latticework close the courtyards contained between the two boxes to the street. This strategy makes it possible to avoid the problem of the composition of the openings in the façades due to the difficult competition of scales.

The development of the programme requires four storeys: two above street level and two below ground level. Despite the necessary stratification, access via the middle floor makes it possible that the patient has to go up or down a floor to be seen.

The consulting rooms and offices live off the courtyard garden that emerges between the outer skin of the building and the glazed inner façade. The staircase - which pierces the building, drawing light into the interior - organises the separation between the waiting areas and the access and service areas.
