The bedrooms and social leisure spaces are oriented to the west.

The big roof, besides conferring elegance and lightness, combines various scales within the building and creates a dialogue with the large green areas around.

This way, the subtle relationship of the individual to the collective, private and public, is confirmed.

The services and the circulation face west and are enriched by a white aluminum lattice which enhances the finesse of the project.
