Cino Zucchi Architetti's L'Ark office building in Bordeaux deftly incorporates the city's historical elements while introducing contemporary design with its sculptural concrete columns and hybrid layout.
The L'Ark office building features columns that not only define the facade with their irregular rhythms and historical textures but also function as expressive structural screens, integrating classical proportions into a modern exterior.
The layered perimeter skin of L'Ark exhibits a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, created by alternating ribbon windows and opaque panels, complemented by anodized aluminum shading that reacts to sunlight.
At the top, a recessed terrace garden provides both an outdoor refuge and an architectural feature that enriches the building's overall depth, while also referencing French architectural heritage.
