This is the new building office of the Bordeaux Urban Community, located in Mériadeck, a few kilometers away from the old site of CUB. This 9-storey administrative building is the first public Plus Energy Building in Bordeaux. Thanks to the high efficient technologies used for air cooling and heating, insulation, ventilation and also lighting systems, the building was labeled HQE ® and BBC Effinergie. The main architectural characteristic of the building design is the south façade, completely realized by PV glass, with special modules of different colors, that looks like a big artistic mosaic.
