Project published in a+t n.31 Hybrids I

The first hybrid skyscraper in France was promoted by the public agency in charge of regenerating the district of a Défense. With it, they look to attract more residents to a fundamentally business district and introduce a representative icon of modern times. Its monolithic volume houses four sectors separated by technical floors. Each sector contains a different use (from bottom to top: retail, offices, hotel and housing) that translates into a different facade composition, and is organised around an atrium that different floors overlook. Each atrium faces Paris or faces west alternatively and they are differentiated from the others by their inner cladding based on silkscreen motifs.
