PUBLICATION / CJBG / Christian Dupraz, Paola Corsini, Jean-Daniel Meyer, Pierre Boillat. In 1967, architecte J-M. Lamunière began working on the first first sketches for the CJGB. Inaugurated in 1974, the building no longer granted the capacity of conservation that was imagined by technical installations that had rapidly expired. A few years later, after a renovation by Christian Dupraz, it is given a second life. An extraordinary architecture, it becomes a diaologue between the two architects. The publication illustrates the intimate relationship between a place and its content through the eyes of photographer Paola Corsini and J-D. Meyer, along with texts by Pierre Boillat, librarian and user, witness of an architecture in movement.
