LCA features wood for the Jarrie media library in Olonne-sur-Mer

Delivered this year, the “a leap in time” program, featuring unique contemporary architecture, included two parts.

On the one hand, the construction of a media library housing a 46-seat auditorium, a convivial and exhibition space as well as a consultation space. And on the other hand, the restructuring of the Logis de la Jarrie, an XNUMXth century building, as an annex town hall of Olonne-sur-Mer.

For this achievement, the LCA Construction Bois company took charge of the interior structures of the media library with the use of spruce in two forms: solid wood and glued laminated wood. For the exteriors, and with the objective of limiting the building's environmental footprint, the LCA teams created and installed a perforated wood cladding that acts as a solar filter. This second skin of the media library is punctuated by “moucharabiehs” which facilitate the building's natural ventilation. Finally, an exterior wooden ceiling completes the work.
