Building

• Nearly the whole building was replaced by a more modern functional design that has won rave reviews.

Site

• The exiguity of the terrain and the impossibility to increase the ground area require lots of cleverness to develop a functional and modern design.

Height

• The need to maintain the existing height of the building was a crucial factor in the development of a high-performance design.
• Two walls were preserved and reinforced during construction.
• The obtuse angle at the intersection of the two walls is located in the fly tower, an unconventional shape that required special treatment.

Chair

• In order to upgrade the room capacity while respecting the norms of evacuation, a new design for chairs is especially developed for the project.
• The seating and the back are both retractable, giving room for the required space within rows.
