“While obviously respecting the characteristic architectural style of the 1930s, we’ve worked to offer the fluidity and flexibility of layout needed to meet the new non-negotiables of office working, which include comfort and practicality.
So each office floor is an easily divisible and modular space. Two vertical corridors in the centre of the building provide access to each level. We chose to locate the service spaces, toilets and technical spaces either side of the floor landings, which completely frees up the office spaces. The same solution also optimises capacity.
The Level 8 terrace is integral to the renovation project, and will provide a generous landscaped area accessible from every level of the building. This terrace will feature plants native to the Paris region, provide a green time out space and, with its 360° views over the capital, create a very pleasant space in which to work and relax”. | Jean-Luc Katchoura, Architect
