The consortium, which is led by Eiffage M茅tal and also includes the group鈥檚 Eiffage G茅nie Civil and Goyer subsidiaries, has been selected by the Le Monde press group for the 23,000m2 headquarters building in Paris鈥� 13th district. The work has an overall value of 鈧�43m (拢38m).
The eight-storey 鈥榖ridge building鈥� will be supported by a structure built partly in Lauterbourg in Alsace, in one of Eiffage M茅tal鈥檚 plants.
Its facade will consist of a two-layered envelope. Goyer will build the first, watertight section, while Eiffage M茅tal will make the second, which is mainly decorative. The building will stand on a slab reinforced by Eiffage G茅nie Civil, built over the railway tracks near the Gare d鈥橝usterlitz.
The project has been developed by Redman on behalf of the Le Monde group. The design is by the architectural firms Snohetta (Norway) and Sra-Architectes (France), which won an international tender.
When work is complete in 2019, the building will house the publications of the Le Monde (Le Monde, T茅l茅rama, Courrier International, La Vie) and the Nouvel Observateur (L鈥橭bs, Rue 89).
