INSTITUTIONAL
ARCHITECTURE

takes shape: the administrative reception
area, the children’s reception area, the
worker-parent-child room, the worker-
child reflection area, etc. Each space
was planned following an analysis of the
movement patterns of the three main user
types (management, staff, and children)
in order to ensure a fluid, functional flow.

Architecture accessible for all
The Institut Pacifique’s new
headquarters allow it to keep growing,
developing, and helping the community.
The organisation can now reach and
welcome more people in a building
that’s safe, and which reflects its mission,
whether through programmes for
young people, special events, or venue
rentals. Having always been close to the
community, Institut Pacifique can now be
even more so! dw
