Architectural vision:
The rehabilitation project consists of creating a unitary volume in which the new and the old are not distinguished. The cubic volume given by the rules of urbanism of the plot is cut, dug, hollowed out, to draw terraces oriented to the south and optimize communication spaces corresponding to flexible organizations favoring transverse and agile cooperation.
The gable facade, adjoining a private open private space, becomes a translucent wall composed of glass blocks over the entire height. This wall hosts an artistic intervention animating the facade with light effects, vibration, and resonance.
This was the first WELL v2 pilot project of our team delivered in April 2021 which significantly Increased the property’s market value (according to investor criteria) by fulfilling international standards.
