The use of slate on the facade was very relevant for the architectural firm.
Christophe Le Dirach, associate architect said:
“This is a stylish choice, the atypical use of slate on the front gives rhythm to the entire building”.
The mineral and natural appearance of the product particularly appealed to the project manager.
In addition, the natural slate durability was decisive for the future owners.
“Often with a wooden cladding, the client fears the maintenance. With natural slate, this concern is minor since the durability simplicity“.
The use of 3 formats provides dynamism to the facade while emphasizing the homogeneity of the whole development. The appearance is reinforced by the with light coloured ground floor. Moreover, the invisible fixings used contribute to reinforce the horizontal lines of this contemporary architecture style.
