Located in the heart of Grenoble’s peninsula, Wood is an innovative project in terms of energy consumption, ecological footprint and thermal comfort. The office building is located on a disused industrial site, allowing 454 m2 of green space to be regenerated. The project adopted a responsible design approach, using wood for the framework, posts
and beams, walls and cladding on the façades.
Wood uses renewable energies (geothermal and geocooling) and has been designed to be bioclimatic (natural ventilation, optimisation of natural light, etc.). The project also promotes biodiversity by integrating nesting boxes into the thickness of the façades. Wood won two awards at the Pyramides d’Argent: the Business Property Prize and the Regional Grand Prize. It is certified NF HQE Bâtiment Durable ‘Très Performant’, Ready to Osmoz, BEPOS Effinergie 2017, BiodiverCity, E+/C- (level E3C2) and RT2012 -77%.
Arcora, a subsidiary of the Ingerop Group, was responsible for the façade engineering.
