Our refurbishment project of the building located at 46-48 avenue de la Grande Armée, led in collaboration with Ardian, is published in a special edition of the magazine L’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui ! The office complex, which now benefits from greater legibility and openness to the city, is now home to Sanofi's headquarters. Grande Armée perfectly incarnates the values and methods of the agency. One of them is to preserve and enhance the existing features and its patrimonial heritage, which first starts with a deep analysis and a thorough comprehension of the buildings and their historical heritage. The project respects the existing building and its heritage history through the research of archives, give priority to the enhancement of the existing building, anticipate new uses from the design phase, limitate the second work and use noble and durable materials.
Thanks to the editorial team of the magazine and to our partners for this publication.
