The building located in the science garden of the University of Strasbourg is made up of two volumes: conical and cylindrical.
The main structure is in wood: solid wood frame and long-span beams (20 m) in glued laminated timber with a central steel ring, walls in wood frame.
The stability of the cone is ensured by CLT-type wooden panels visible inside. The screen is suspended from a hemispherical steel dome.
