An objective of BREEAM Excellent certification has been set for the office part of the programme.
EUROPACITY
For the development of this avant-garde project on an exceptional scale, Alliages et Territoires has decided to conduct the project using BIM starting in its very first stages. Builders Solutions therefore assisted the project team with the definition of the digital development strategy, leading to the digitalisation of the “site plan” and the production of “digital working package sheets” aimed at the site’s future architects. This model will notably allow management of the overall architectural quality, together with the different performance indicators.
LANDSCAPE–TOURS PASCAL: START OF CONSTRUCTION
In the heart of the Paris-La Défense business district the former Pascal Towers, now known as Landscape, will be transformed into an exceptional complex with approximately 70,000 sqm. Designed in 1983 by architect Henri La Fonta to house IBM’s European head office, a competition, organised by Altarea Cogedim and Goldman Sachs, was launched among French and international architects in order to select the best project for the reconfiguration of the buildings. The project proposed by DPA, Dominique Perrault’s practice, was selected on the basis of its ambition and pertinence, especially as regards its urban, architectural and landscaping qualities and because it paves the way for a new generation of offices conversant with their environment: total reconfiguration of the podium and the facades, full review of the functioning of the office floors, maximising of the ceiling heights, creation of floor area, via connecting skyways between the two towers, and generous terraces. The Builders & Partners group is responsible for coordinating the studies, works management, BIM management and clash avoidance on the operation.

The Operation includes an urban composition with the future Ministry of Defence designed by the firm Nicolas Michelin and resonates with it. The volumes created, especially in the halls, allow sharp identification of the building entrances from the various means of access to the site (metro, tram, RER rail, bikes and vehicles), combined with a transparency that projects the user directly onto the landscaped park from those halls. The project is innovative in the proposed amenities such as parking for electric vehicles, smartphone-adjustable comfort settings, environmental certifications, etc. The quality of its architecture, the location, and the products and materials used in the construction of these buildings in the Qu4drans Project mark it as unique in tertiary architecture.
