Designed by Ricardo Bofill in the 1980’s, Antigone district is nowadays a reference for modern urban planning. Streets, means of transportation, squares and buildings… everything was planned for a better way of life.
Antigone is fitted out with many equipment : a multi media library designed by Paul Chemetov, an olympic pool, the regional government building….
