Delivered early 2019, swift construction work saw the completion of what would become the epicenter of the World
Design Capital.
The project perfectly embodies the ecological ambitions of a sustainable urban center. Henning Larsen Architects (Denmark) and KeurK Architecture (Lille), who are responsible for the project — are seeking BREEAM certificates of excellence, biodiversity and E+C- — which will offer passers-by a glimpse of huge living, breathing roof gardens and terraces.
The interior space of this immense green vessel was created using natural materials such as wood and stone. There is a two-storey atrium as well as open spaces for restaurants, relaxation and coworking.
