Jean-Philippe Pargade Architecte

The architect and urbanist Jean-Philippe Pargade opened his agency in Paris in 1980, specializing in large public buildings such as hospitals, research and teaching centers, office complexes, and housing developments.

Pargade’s experience and the team he has formed are the foundation stones on which his renowned expertise and his ever-evolving efficacy have been built. The ​“Subjectifying Space” exhibition at the Galerie d’Architecture uses Pargade’s most recent work to highlight his personal approach to architectural projects, showcasing four major projects that are currently being built : the Paris-Est scientific and technical research complex at Marne-la-Vallée, the SIAAP industrial campus at Achères, a private hospital at Villeneuve d’Ascq, the Bégin military teaching hospital at Saint-Mandé and the St.Joseph hospital in Marseille.
