The company CODIC, decided to develop a retail park of 12 800 m2 on a site it owns in Villennes-sur-Seine. Situated approximately 30 km west of Paris and running alongside the A13 motorway, this commercial centre is located close to an already important commercial zone on either site of the D45 road.
The building is conceived and programed to be subdivided into plots of 200 to 3 000 m2. The architectural challenge for STUDIOS has been to create a strong image, making it a beacon along the busy A13 and a building that distinguishes itself from the existing ones situated along the D45.
The building will have a considerable height (8,5m) and an undulating roof that will protrude out and protect the walkways of the shops. The large glass façade will lead on to a parking lot for 420 cars.
