Project Description

Living the landscape

At the Buc fortress, there exist a strong conjunction between a historic construction, witness of military engineering of 19th century and preoccupations and expectations of our time.

Buc Fortress:
Buc Fortress Hotel Building

The questions asked by the transformation of the fortress are how live the landscape, a troglodyte edifice with the forest as a roof, how inhabit the history, witness of our past.

Buc Eco Hotel Building

The hotel program in harmony with the existing spaces is able to conjugate two major requirements which are:
– allow an ambitious architectural construction project valorizing for the city of Buc
– mixing the conservation of the natural spaces and respect of the existing buildings.

It is to generate a supplementary spirit putting in work in direct connection the existing heritage and a charming residential space together. Our thoughts are about a very high respect of the existing, with the inclusion of a contemporary intervention for all elements of second work.

It is to put in resonance two periods bringing a maximum of comfort at the building, without any mimesis or pastiche.
