An outdated architectual style and considerable energy inefficiencies necessitated a complete renovation of this building by ISOVER. However, the main challenge consisted in doing so without altering the building's original structure. Meeting this objective required establishing a specific action plan, starting with the insulation of all windows and walls.
From an architectual point of view, the renovation was an oppportunity to create a more contemporary and attractive façade, allowing the building to distinguish itself with relation to surrounding buildings. What's more, the building belonged to a well-known company possessing similar buildings in other cities. A high degree of modernity was therefore essential.
