Connected, modern, innovative, with eco-responsible layouts and a rethought work organisation... everything has been designed to create a workspace that reflects the values of Banque Populaire Rives de Paris.

Olivier Garrocq, Director of Buildings, Logistics and Retail / Banque Populaire Rives De Paris

Opening up the building to the outside world to bring as much light as possible into the heart of the project was a priority. A new dialogue has been created between the living spaces, the views over the urban landscape and the terraces, which have been landscaped and planted to enhance the well-being of the occupants.

Jérôme Le Gall, associate architect / Arte Charpentier

For me, this project was first and foremost a wonderful story of men and women, a great team, united despite the difficulties and highly motivated. Our great pleasure was to see the staff of Banque Populaire Rives de Paris move in on the right day, without delay and in the good working conditions expected.

The development of a common vegetation strategy for the archipelago of terraces and patios creates a network of vegetation that enhances biodiversity.

800m²

generously planted terraces distributed over 5 levels.

The light tones and luminous materials used in the various living areas combine seamlessly with a multitude of scenarios... with the 62 other colours of the architectural polychromy.

Stéphane Quigna, interior architect / Arte Charpentier

The façade is light and reflective, so as to remain unobtrusive in the Parisian landscape. The 'double skin' solution captures as much natural light as possible, but also allows the building to be unobstructed during the summer months.

Concept

The new headquarters of Banque Populaire Rives de Paris is a renovation of an office building designed in the 1950s by architect Adrien Brelet for Air France, then renovated by Christian de Portzamparc in 2003 for the editorial offices of Le Monde newspaper.

For this new renovation, the agency brought together all its expertise, from overall design (architecture, interior design, landscaping) to project management and supervision. Located in the heart of Paris, the building offers 17,200 m² of workspace spread over nine floors.

These workspaces extend outdoors with approximately 800 m² of terraces covered in vegetation spread over five levels. Users can enjoy fantastic views of the neighborhood and the rooftops of Paris. These landscaped spaces also play an important role in encouraging the development of urban flora and fauna.

Despite the complicated existing concrete structure, the teams opted for transformation rather than demolition/reconstruction: adjusting rather than replacing. It was with this environmental ambition in mind that the agency guided the architectural and technical design: implementation of a high-performance thin double-skin facade, reuse of rainwater, heat pumps.

While the building’s striking silhouette remains unchanged, the new envelope addresses both environmental concerns and the need for natural light. A “thin double skin” facade has been installed to meet two conflicting objectives: to capture as much natural light as possible while also providing protection from it during the hot seasons. The teams designed a light, transparent façade that allows the building to remain discreet on a city scale, despite its 40-meter height.

At street level, the building’s uses are revealed thanks to a transparent façade and accessible terraces.
