Hyperion Tower
Jean-Paul Viguier et Associés, in partnership with Eiffage and Woodeum, has won a competition to build a 50-meter high residential tower in Bordeaux on plot 8.4 in the Saint-Jean Belcier district. The project named Hyperion, in reference to the tallest living tree on earth, will be built using a wooden CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) structure.
In environmental terms, the project is representative of a new generation of low-carbon buildings. The lightness and stiffness of solid wood CLT, combined with the strength of glulam and LVL technology takes timber construction to new heights.
Hyperion will serve as a reference for BBCA (low carbon building label) building.
The construction will begin in 2017 with a delivery expected at the end of 2019.

Mansion L’hôtel de Bethmann
In this mansion, the living space is revealed by the encounter between past and present. It is in the interpretation and the articulation of the existing architectural signs that has emerged the project, where each new architecture fragment fits and dances in its context.
