The old prison of Mont-de-Marsan

Work of the chief engineer of bridges and causeways David Francis Panay, it is built from 1807 to 1809 and finally closed December 7th, 2008 at the opening the new prison .

construction of the prison is that of contemporary courthouse Mont-de-Marsan. Before the two institutions were grouped in Chateau-Vieux, where during the Middle Ages were on the court and the seneschal presidial courts of the former regime.

the courthouse and jail were built in front of one another and the prison was in line with the police barracks.

The prefect of the time, in a report, praised the building and presenting it as perfectly safe, a walkway that facilitates monitoring, an infirmary, which prevents efficient transfer, and a facade of character that emphasizes fear and respect. but it is precisely this architecture which initially sparked protests from local residents. In fact this architecture fits poorly with the bourgeois architecture of the artery is lined with houses quite luxurious.

The left side of the facade is listed as historic monuments by order of December 22, 1987, the right side of the entrance facade and roof are attached classified as historical monuments by order of April 10, 1990. It is the only monument of Mont-de-Marsan.

The remains of the old prison of Mont-de- Marsan are for sale

On sale, the former prison was coveted by developers.

Obviously the site is now less impressive. Disembodied, emptied of its 80 detainees, the former prison of 4 Street Dulamon is less chilling. Yet there are still grates and bars, dungeons and cookers, unsanitary conditions, moisture on walls, loose paint. Everything is there, set in a past suspended, almost surreal. Ghostly.

It does lack a few. Inmates. Their smell, their cries. Omniabsents. All this life that we had seen restraint, time for a visit in 2008, before closing imminent. All the blood too cramped in the blue veins, these temples which beat to the rhythm of confinement, the yard is too small and days too long.

Still. Gradually, as one sinks into the bowels of the building of 1800 m2, the past is back, at the turn of a few details surprisingly few of this claustrophobic prison. Escaped the vigilance on the back of a window sill, a tag sign a passage, in the days before freedom. "Keep my potos pesher" calls over the toilet another hand than we imagine releasably in a final goodbye solidarity. Some insults obviously some provocations. But as a primer, a measurement chart, multiplication tables. Or in this cooker, common cell with 17 or 18 detainees in times of overcrowding, some images of big guns on a wall. Yet another drawing of mine shafts paper, branch by branch, leaf after sheet. A boat, trees, a landscape, a face ... images of freedom.

And the daily in its discomfort. Public toilets at all, a poor sink, an exercise yard that would be ludicrous ... a goldfish

So to distract developers a nothing impressed by the atmosphere convict, Stephanie Soler, Society land and property valuation, which manages the assets of the state and will visit the prison for sale, insists on the ante-past of the prison building. "Before being a prison, the site hosted the Ursuline Convent. One can also exploit the image of the sixteenth century and the aesthetic of the building, "says the young woman. "Only after the Revolution, many convents have been converted into national property and prisons. "It was in 1807 that the walls welcoming young girls are transformed into a detention center exclusively for men opened in 1823.

Soon, a new page in the history of Mons will turn to the rhythm of shovels. And 4 Street Dulamon become a luxury residence in downtown with parking and amenities. Only the door Wood, classified, will be saved from the past bad memories.

Townhouse Low Consumption - BBC



Here is a sketch for a proposed BBC home near Bordeaux.
I focused my thoughts on the first orientation, with the constraint of the BBC. I wished that there is no living space or any room, facing north. So I organized the house The open south.
The second constraint was the need to isolate themselves from the neighboring southeast side. So I focused on framing the garden, while protecting certain views with sliding shutters. (Type of marine plywood).
the ground floor, 2 entities have emerged: the dining area open onto the terrace and the living area open onto the garden. A straight staircase separates these airy living spaces from one corner Health / pantry / closet entrance. Finally on the floor, I wanted the children's rooms clearly separated from the master suite and of course all facing the garden.
At the light, I think that the DRC will not miss ... On entering the house, you see the garden through the concertina bay lounge, dining area benefits from a through-focus double, and the living area, generous windows plunges us into the garden. Upstairs, a narrow bay north Calls to climb the stairs to discover the sleeping area. Only concession to the light, the bathroom which also opens child side street. Finally, the master suite, treated as a large open space, his space with bathroom and dressing room furniture, which enjoys a sort of wooden box, in order to return a maximum of sunlight while preserving views.
From outside, the house wants very contemporary, fine plaster around two smooth, white for the DRC, and anthracite for the floor, with a desire to express a suspended mass.
Finally, the garage has its place in the volume of the chambers to maintain the direct street access. We could of course be isolated from wood or metal panels.

Stay tuned.
