The title of the project is &#8220;New&#8217;R&#8221; and is located in Nantes, west France. The design pays homage to the architecture of the 1970\u2019s French Riviera and the world renowned architect, Oscar Niemeyer. Talking about the facade, Jean-Christophe Masson and Ga\u00eblle Hamonic, the principal architects at the firm said that the intent of the design on the facade was to connect the flow of the city\u2019s people, cars, and bicycles, &#8220;The building\u2019s transparency, depth, and various perspectives engender a dynamism and liveliness around the perimeter of the project, consequently enriching the surrounding environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/newr_02.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If one were to break the facade design down, the strategy is to pair a simple faceted angular building envelope with outboard curvilinear balconies. Italian based ALUBEL is responsible for the aluminium panelling for the facade and balconies. The volume of the building has been broken into four subsequent towers which help compliment the surrounding landscape of the location and providing an addition of rooftop terrace space. These landings, according to the architects, help to produce a \u201cgraduated system of high-rise living.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/newr_03.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The feature of the project, though, remains the guardrails, made up of two assembly types: an open rail system, and a perforated panel system. Using plant containers in the lower floor was a conscious decision in an attempt to provide those floors with some privacy while the floors above remain open for unobstructed views. \u201cLiving here enables people to understand and appreciate the city that surrounds them: architecture in cinemascope,\u201d the architects added.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/newr_06.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mccoymart.com\/post\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/newr_08.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project: New\u2019R Architect: Harmonic+Masson &amp; Associes Loaction: Nantes, France Harmonic+Masson &amp; Associes based in Paris, has completed a housing tower with a unique facade envelope made of an angular core which is wrapped in undulating balconies.
