CO’Met 项目位于法国城市奥尔良，它将三个不同的场馆——体育场、会议中心和展览中心——汇集在一个全新且具有力量感的建筑形象当中，并沿着城市的南部入口呈现出一个壮观的序列。项目整体构成了一个庞大的多功能设施，兼具了体育、文化和活动的功能。凭借独特又连续的布局方式，该项目显著地改变了人们对奥尔良大都会入口区域的观感。

Co’met brings together three distinct programs in a new and powerful architectural image. The Arena, the convention center and the exhibition center come together in a spectacular sequence along the southern entrance to Orléans. The whole constitutes a vast multifunctional facility, a unique tool for sports, culture and events. By installing the functions in a way that is both distinct and continuous, Co’met drastically changes the perception of the entrance to the Orleans metropolis.

不同于传统的大型多功能设施，CO’Met 项目展示出轻盈且干练的形象。它的身份特征来自于其所在的环境本身：卢瓦尔河畔的优美氛围，被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产的场地，为建筑流畅且柔和的造型赋予了灵感。

As a counterpoint to the large functional volumes, the image of Co’met is all lightness and clarity. Its identity comes from what is there and not elsewhere. The subtle atmosphere of the banks of the Loire, a Unesco World Heritage Site, inspired a fluid and soft architecture.

起伏的立面将体育场包覆起来，并延伸至所有的设施。曲线的变化修饰了单一的体量，并且与光线和天空的变化形成呼应。“漂浮”在建筑外缘的屏墙创造出透明度，在暗示建筑轮廓的同时也提供了视觉上的深度。这并非一座可以一目了然的建筑，人们对它的印象会不断更新和改变。到了夜晚，建筑又将在微妙的灯光下展示出另一种新的形象。

The undulating drape of the facade envelops the Arena and extents out over all the facilities. The image is unitary but punctuated by the variation of curves that play with the variation of light and the changing sky. By floating in front of the buildings, the façade creates transparencies, suggests silhouettes, offers depths of field. It is not an architecture that is exhausted at first glance, and the impressions one has of it are constantly renewed. At night Co’met is metamorphosed by a subtle lighting and it is a completely new image that appears.
