Schindler France headquarters

The ground floor is structured around a central double-height lobby intended for reception, recreation and catering premises. The office levels are superposed on the upper floors, prioritising spaces according to the employee activities, in a full flex layout according to high-density areas, intermediate areas and interaction areas according to the Group’s needs. Each floor has direct access to a string of terraces and gardens, offering employees immersive access to an abundant natural environment. The meeting room, located on the fifth and last level, opens onto the rooftop terrace overlooking the site and providing a scenic view of the surrounding urban landscape.

The future head office needs to be a new-generation environmentally-friendly and sustainable building attuned to its surroundings. The building envelope has been designed to interact with the climatic conditions and the environment. The façade is accented by a succession of fixed and adjustable enamelled glass panels serving as a natural ventilation system. The future head office has been conceived for the widest opening to the outside environment, as a reflection of the company’s values of openness and transparency.
