information
We are going through an unusual period and in order to guarantee the safety and health of all, the entire LAN team is now operational in teleworking.
Focus On
FOCUS ON is a documentary series that invites you to dive into the details of a project. Take a look at the video produced on the Théâtre du Maillon project. A cultural project whose main characteristic lies in modularity.
Scenarios
The building embraces hyper-flexibility, without limit between what is scenic and what is not. Each space becomes a discovery, each detail an invention.
Spaces
Théâtre du Maillon consists of two auditoriums, a hospitality area, a logistics area, an administrative area, an 'artists' area, a backstage logistics area and two courtyards: a logistics courtyard and an entrance courtyard.
Grand opening
Théâtre du Maillon has opened on the weekend of the 23rd and 24th of November. Both days were full of surprises: shows, performances, nocturnal visits and DJ sets.
Completed
Théâtre du Maillon has been completed. To reassert the founding principles of the Maillon's artistic identity and to enshrine an experimental approach to research and artistic creation, as well as to showcase its commitment to fostering direct, lively relations between artists and audiences, the plans for the new theatre aim to build more than a mere place: a true artistic machine at the intersection of theatre and the making of theatre.
The theatre and the city
The Maillon has grown with the evolution of Strasbourg: from the development of new outlying districts in the 1970s to the revitalisation of a new urban centre at Wacken and the concurrent establishment of an urban continuity with its neighbours across the Rhine.
The president speech
On October 1st, President Emmanuel Macron pre-inaugurated the Théâtre du Maillon which he describes as "a magical place that can constantly reinvent itself, be reconfigured, remodeled."
Make A... and do it yourself
MAKE A is a veritable manifesto that aims to democratise furniture manufacturing without going through distributors and to empower consumers to become co-designers.
Maillon's History
Théâtre du Maillon, originally known as the Maillon Cultural Centre, opened in 1978 in Hautepierre with the goal of spreading culture to the outlying neighbourhoods.
Signage
In collaboration with the Maillon teams, we created a neutral and monochrome signage intended to merge into the walls of the building. Texts are written in GT America font and pictograms which will then be applied on the concrete.
