Nouveau Tribunal Aix-en Provence, Frankreich

Project details:

Execution: 2024– 14.000 m2 in collaboration with Lafarge France

Senior Architect: Atelier Marc Barani

Construction company: Faya/Bec Construction, France

Client: Ministry of Justice

Purpose of mineralization:

The exterior facade made of colored concrete has been mineralized, significantly improving its durability and ease of maintenance. This process does not alter the color tone and allows the concrete to continue breathing. In addition, the mineralization reduces the dust formation of the concrete and provides long-lasting protection against the penetration of moisture and dirt. Graffiti can also be removed more easily.
