Saint-Ours-les-Roches, France

Vulcania, a theme park dedicated to the discovery of volcanoes and the planet Earth, is a place where visitors can discover the secrets of volcanism, natural phenomena and the solar system, located in the heart of the French region of the Puy-du-Dome. The design incorporates research and conference facilities, large IMAX theatres, greenhouses to highlight the positive effects of vulcanism – fertility – and a restaurant with views out to the whole nature park.

We intervened in the realization of this European park. Our approach was to give live to science in the form of discoveries and emotions, while remaining faithful to its educational ambition.
