Transforming for tomorrow

                                                                The renovation of First Tower will reduce the building’s carbon intensity as well as its energy consumption. Every design decision considers the environmental and social impacts – resulting in actions to install full LED lighting, connect to the district heating network, replace ageing fan coil units and explore green energy contracts among others.
                              

                                                                With redesigned office spaces to support hybrid working and a new auditorium foyer for idea-sharing and collaboration. We have created a high quality office which is a stone’s throw from the Paris Metro. 
                              

                                                                We’ve installed 400 bike parking spaces and several changing rooms which makes it easy to choose less carbon intensive transportation.
