Project description
Lille council and the OCMW are currently housed in separate buildings at different locations.
It is the wish of both authorities to create a single public centre where citizens will find all local services near to one another. The council and the OCMW are therefore joining forces to expand the current town hall and convert it into a single complete Administrative Centre and Social Services Centre.
The restructuring of the site should enhance the town centre and form a pleasant information point in the centre of Lille. The buildings must be in harmony with the spacious green surroundings and form a single functional whole together with them. Of importance are the old doctor’s residence nearby and the adjoining green land owned by the council, which must be conceptually integrated into the project. The site must form a single coherent whole that shows respect for the history and unique character of the old doctor’s residence.
The architecture must support the recognisability of the public services by means of a logical and flexible planning arrangement. Optimal and clear accessibility and a customer-oriented reception area are of central importance in this regard. The renovated building must also be a pleasant and future-oriented working environment for the staff.
The council and the OCMW wish to build an energy-efficient centre with high organisational quality on the one hand and high architectural and urban-planning quality on the other. It should serve as an example in its accessibility, flexibility and sustainability.
