EPITA – School of Computer Science & Advanced Techniques, is one of the three French engineering schools for information and communication technologies, which constitute the IONIS Education Group, the main group of private higher education in France. Affected by important restoration and extension works conceived by Tragin Architectes, the headquarters in Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, not far from Porte d’Italie in Paris, are characterised by a geometric façade, which emphasizes the building verticality, while inside it comfortable double-height lecture rooms guarantee a high quality workspace. Created according to high standards of flexibility, modularity and comfort, the conference hall is equipped with LAMM Runner study benches, design Lucci e Orlandini, arranged in straight rows on sloped floor. Tip-up seats have an automatic cushioned return, while backrests are designed to follow the anatomy of the spinal column, providing the right amount of comfort.
