Image title: The Unique Place in Nantes. Architecture of Patrick Bouchain 2000. Destined for the manufacture of biscuits, the Lefevre-Utile factory was built at the beginning of the 20th century on the edge of the Saint-Felix Canal using modern techniques. Two Art Nouveau towers designed by Auguste Bluysen were added in 1909. The workshops were active until the beginning of the 1970s and in 1986 the factory was definitively closed. The tower was restored in 1998 by Jean-Marie Lepinay. And Patrick Bouchain will carry out the renovation while keeping the spirit of the place, that of a factory spontaneously transformed into a cultural place.
