located in saint mesmes, france is a new commercial office designed by french firm LAN Architecture. the site which is on a slope provides views over the neighboring hills. the concept for the building was to create two hierarchically related volumes, placed perpendicularly to one another along a north-south axis following the slope of the site. one of the volumes contains flexible work spaces while the other encloses a workshop, exhibition space and storage areas. offices occupy the upper area of the site and are raised above ground to provide an impression of lightness. the intersection of the two volumes serves as the entrance, with a sloped ramp rising up into the building. the elevations and roof are completely constructed from black painted concrete.
