IdHEO - Nantes

Steel, in the service of contemporary architecture and energy performance, in this new tertiary project for the French school of osteopathy in Nantes (France).

For this project, there was no room to extend horizontally. Therefore, an 'upward' extension became the only possible solution. The engineers and architects from Ryo and Atelier David had a lot of discussions about how to proceed with this extension. The JI Boreas XLS cassette was the obvious choice to enhance the steel structure.

Joris Ide was chosen as a partner because of its expertise in aesthetic and technical facade solutions.

• Aesthetically with :
  •  An evenness of the installed products with a range of different shades of green.  
    
• Technicality and ease of implementation with:
  • Placement of the façade panels in an asymmetrical and playful way
