Chapidock
The Lézards Animés circus arts centre will provide circus arts classes for amateurs and professionals, as well as performances.
Under its glass dome and large pink marquee affixed to wood siding, Chapidock houses a space as singular and eloquent as its external appearance. Based on the initial design - a free-standing tent-like structure lit by natural light - the architects of the agency In Situ A&E came up with a project that reinterprets the circus concept. On the ground, a concrete ring supports a wooden frame and the technical alcoves built into the walls. A dance floor will be installed in the space dedicated to students and professionals.
