Etik - Boulogne Billancourt
Place:
896, rue Yves Kermen, ZAC Seguin - Rives de Seine 92100 BOULOGNE BILLANCOURT, FRANCE.


Context:
- 8-floor office/retail building with a total surface area of 10 000m²,
- Durable concept, ETIK is HQE (High Environmental Quality) and BBC (low-energy building) certified,
- An original architecture by KCAP and carried out in collaboration with Atelier 115: a mineral facade wraps around a glass cube,
- The combination of materials - mineral stone, concrete and glass- creates a subtle transition between the urban and industrial elements of the old quarter.
Balsan recommend's:
- For passageway areas, a durable carpeting solution that is comfortable to walk on,
- Choice of the Fragment carpet tiles for the floor to reproduce the ‘split’ style of the building's mineral stone,
- Dark, lined colour that catches the light for better wear in high-traffic areas,
- Very low wastage,
- Using carpet provides a pleasant acoustic environment by absorbing air-borne sounds that are reflected off the flat and smooth surfaces found in large spaces such as these,
- Carpets in stock for adherence to deadlines and supply demands.
