After studying architecture at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des
Beaux-Arts in Paris, Aymeric Zublena, born in September 1936 in
Paris, graduated in 1963 and completed his training in urban
planning at the Tony Garnier 'seminar'. In 1967 he won a Second
Grand Prix of Rome on the theme 'A House of Europe in Paris'. In
the same year, he became chief architect of the new town of Marne
la Vallee, directing the studies of the regional urban centre for
nearly 15 years. He developed the principle of diversity and urban
density organised around powerful public transport. During this
same period, he was the architect of the French mission of study in
charge of the master plan of Greater Buenos Aires, foreseeing the
creation of two new linear cities along the Rio de la Plata. For
each of his programs, Aymeric Zublena is looking for a singular
architectural response that strongly marks the host site with an
emblematic sign making it easily identifiable: the 'hospital
street' of the Georges Pompidou European Hospital, a long glass
gallery that inscribes a new axis in the heart of Paris, the cover
of the Stade de France which floats above the stands and the
forecourt, the crescent of the Istanbul stadium, the bird wing of
the Suwon stadium. The 'butterfly' metal lifting structures of the
Rouen bridge, the monumental mobile door of the DASES on the Quai
de la Rapee in Paris. Text in English and French.
