Chatillon Architectes wins the competition for the redevelopment of the Quadrilatère!

10 March 2021

The museum inaugurated in 1976 to house the national tapestry gallery was designed by André Hermant as an "anti-monument". It was not supposed to be seen but to offer an incredible viewingpoint over the radiating chapel of the Saint-Pierre cathedral of Beauvais, the archaeological remains and the artworks it was going to present. The museum, recently renamed The Quadrilatère, offers a wide variety of cultural activities and strives to highlight the connections between heritage and contemporary creation.

Following the general ideas of André Hermant, we have thought a redevelopment project enhancing the beautiful building and enabling the new Quadrilatère to be a place more open to the city, its visitors and inhabitants.
