In the 1830s, Félix Duban, the architect in charge of building the Beaux-Arts school, demolished the cloister of the Petits-Augustins convent to make a hole in the main courtyard and rebuilt a cloister in the neoclassical style. A Chinese mulberry tree de already planted there gave its name to this new shady courtyard. The cloister around the courtyard houses a reproduction of the Parthenon friezes. Nowadays one gets to Paris-Malaquais School of Architecture’s library through this courtyard.

Designed by Auguste Perret’s company just after the 2nd world war, this building had three floors of workshops devoted to new teaching methods. Paris-Malaquais School of Architecture now occupies most of the building with classrooms, common areas for students to relax and work, two production workshops and administrative offices.

At the end the 1990s, these premises were built between the Palais des études and the Hôtel de Chimay to meet new requirements imposed by the reorganization of Greater Paris’s schools of architecture at the time. Designed by architect Nicolas Michelin, the building houses classrooms, laboratories and the research department, the photo/ video studio and workshop, and the school’s IT department.

Built between 1820 and 1824 by François Debret in a classic Italianate style, the Loggias building was dedicated to competitions. The students isolated themselves in a loggia, at times for up to three days, to produce a sketch or a work. The building was completely restructured in the 1970s and its ground floor is now occupied by two lecture theatres including lecture theatre 2 of the Loggias reserved for Paris-Malaquais School of Architecture.

The 6 floors of the building at 1 rue Jacques Callot are allocated to project-related courses from the third bachelor’s degree year. It was built in 1931 by architect Roger-Henri Expert, also known for fitting out liners. Maybe because of this influence, the building is the first one to have displayed such modernity in the centre of Paris.
