The municipal health center in the city of La Courneuve represents an important urban issue. This building participates actively in the major project of re-qualification of public space led by the city. This building hosts an overlay of three distinct programs: a municipal health center, a municipal restaurant and underground parking. The south facades are covered with anodised aluminum cassettes skin, perforated or stamped. The north facade consists in a fully glazed and screen printed skin. The pattern used represents the shape of a head, designed by the artist Jean-Charles Blais and inspired by the side view of Salvador Allende.
