人: The Proscenium of Ephemeral Reflections, by González Serrano Studio+ & J-AF Architecture, is an architectural intervention within a French National Monument, creating a theatrical performative space inspired by movement and the 2024 Olympic Games. The installation, constructed from 572 3D printed pieces, CNC-cut wood structures, and nearly 600 laser-cut mirrors, transforms a courtyard into an interactive stage.

The design, titled ‘人’ (person), emphasizes movement and rhythm as fundamental aspects of artistic creation. The term ‘proscenium’ refers to the space between the audience and the curtain (facade), here reinterpreted as the Court d´Honneur, the transitional space between the public and the monumental. The project decomposes the context into a performative space, with a scenographic backdrop generating rhythm within the courtyard.
