The thermal and aesthetic renovation of the Jacques Brel secondary school in Guérande consists of 3 distinct and yet linked buildings. The central squared building has 4 levels, the North wing has a ground level and the south wing is two floors high.

The energetic renovation is planned by elements with an exterior thermal insulation coated with cement wood and natural wood cladding.

The exterior openings of the central building are covered with a full lacquered aluminum mortar with 4 different colours corresponding to the four floors of the building.

The building site uses prefabricated wooden frame walls brought and elevated by façades on four levels in order to provide secured construction sites while the secondary school is used by its students.
