The Bureau

The building is organized around a central core, the true backbone of the structure, which manages vertical circulation and frees up the office floors. These floors are designed to be open, flexible, and filled with natural light, enabling a variety of layouts that can adapt to users’ evolving needs. The architecture emphasizes a strong connection to the outside: balconies and terraces extend the workspaces, offering visual breathing spaces and areas for breaks that respond to the local climate.

In response to Antananarivo’s climatic constraints, particularly its intense sunlight, the project integrates a bioclimatic façade:

• Vertical sunshades on the façade, acting as solar filters while creating a rhythmic architectural expression.

• High‑performance glazing and dynamic solar protection, limiting heat gain while maximizing natural light.

• A building envelope designed to reduce energy loss and improve indoor thermal comfort.

The office spaces are complemented by amenities that enhance user well‑being: fitness room, cafeteria...
