Description
Available in:
Pôle sportif et culturel Chamonix Nord (English: North Chamonix Sports and Culture Hub) is an ensemble of educational and sports facilities located in the northern part of Chamonix, Haute-Savoie, France. The project was the brainchild of Chamonix's mayor, former minister and mountaineer Maurice Herzog, and architect Roger Taillibert, with engineering support from Heinz Isler.
It is aesthetically significant for introducing the use of domed skylights to Taillibert's work, which he would revisit on a larger scale with Montréal's Olympic Park and Abu Dhabi's Armed Forces Officers Club and Hotel. While well received within the architectural community, its stark departure from Alpine tradition was divisive among the general public. Newspaper Le Monde attributed Herzog's loss in the 1977 mayoral election to the local population's disdain for Taillibert's style, which he had championed.
Centre sportif Richard-Bozon (English: Richard Bozon Sports Center) is the name collectively given to north Chamonix's sports facilities. The name broadly applies to the sports buildings within the Taillibert ensemble, and other nearby infrastructures to which he didn't contribute. It was adopted following the 1995 death of veteran mountain guide Richard Bozon in an avalanche.
