Weddings, birthdays and new citizenships are all life events that deserve celebration.
Transforming the celebration in an architecture design is the challenge posed to the resolution of this administrative office building. The assignment moved us to adopt a playful and festive character for the organization of the project but nevertheless respecting in a rigorous manner, the program requirements. We therefore propose a building with a strong volumetric synthesis where roof and vertical parameters become a total facade.
On the front we apply the image of a forest with which we try to express the dialogue between the surrounding park and the building. It is a pattern of dots on both sides of the glass skin that allows reconstructing the image by superposition.
