The purpose of the architecture competition was the creation of a hotel complex on the PEx site: the Toulouse Métropole Exhibition & Convention Center. An "off the ground" hotel attached to a unique activity. By nature this type of establishment leaves little free space for vagrancy. Staying in a hotel in transit, as part of a business trip is, to tell the truth, not the most exciting of opportunities for nomadic executives. One to two nights for visitors, three to four for exhibitors, all are there to get information, contacts, contracts.
In the case that concerns us, geography speaks. This is not a boutique hotel starting point of an urban wander. The hotel is the city. It is a world in the world, it fits in the activity of the day. We enter the hotel at the very moment when the feverish daytime activity fades and dies out. Space, warm comfort, services. A haven where the adventure can continue on another mode before going to sleep in the canopy in a comfort without flaw. Another world nestled in a unique setting, here in Toulouse, not in Tokyo or Berlin. A vigorous architecture, a joyful identity. Break and surprise. Some unlikely places that tickle the imagination, designed to be invested alone or in groups to work, relax, laugh and talk until the end of the night. Easy access, legibility of basic paths, depth of routes. Diversity of places. Nested spaces.
We ignore the content, agreed, formal and impersonal character of international hotel standards. Here and now. Toulouse is a young and active city. A light, free and joyful atmosphere that takes into account the modernity of the day's behavior. A certain graphic freedom, materials without makeup, a mental order supported. The hunt for common places is opened.
