La Maison de la Batellerie in Paris, France by Jean-Baptiste Lacoudre Architectures
THE SKIPPERS HOUSE IS PART OF A GROUP OF BUILDINGS THAT FORM AN URBAN FAÇADE ON THE SEINE. THE STRATEGIC LOCATION OF THIS “HOUSE” BETWEEN THE SEINE AND QUAI, FANTASTIC VIEWS, BUT VARIOUS CHANGES HAVE REMOVED THIS PERMEABILITY. IN ADDITION IN 1970, A HEIGHTENING OF THE ROOM AWARD WAS MADE BY A “PASTICHE” OF CORRUGATED SHEETS IMITATING CONCRETE FAÇADE. THIS ADDITION MAKES “HEAVY MASS” IN THE VOLUME GROWTH.
OUR PROJECT IS TO FIND THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT BROTHERS ARSÈNE HENRY “TREATED IN A SPIRIT OF COUNTING AND SIMPLICITY” WHICH FINDS TRANSPARENCY. WE PROPOSE A NEW ALLIANCE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY PRODUCED BY THE REMOVAL OF ALL INTERVENTIONS “PASTICHES” REPLACED BY A NEW TRANSPARENT SKIN THAT WILL BRIGHTEN THE LANDSCAPE OF THE SEINE AS A “MAGIC LANTERN.”
THE FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION PROPOSES A NEW HALL THROUGH THE GROUND FLOOR IS THE “HUB” OF CENTRAL INTERACTIONS OF THIS BUILDING, WHICH PROVIDES ACCESS TO A STAIR-LIFT TO THE 6 FLOORS OF OFFICES AND CONFERENCE ROOM .
FREE FROM TECHNICAL CONTINGENCIES, THE OFFICE FLOORS ARE LARGE AREAS OF ABOUT 300 M2. SANITARY AND FIRE ESCAPES ARE REJECTED AT EACH END. SOLUTIONS RADIANT CEILING ACOUSTIC “HYBRIDS” FIT BETWEEN THE BEAMS IN THE MANNER OF CARPET WITHOUT INTERFERING WITH SUBSEQUENT DIVISIONS.
THE PRODUCTION OF COOLING IS OBTAINED WITHOUT RESORTING TO MECHANICAL PRODUCTION OF COLD BY COOLING “ADIABATE” “ADSOLAIR – COOLING WITHOUT ELECTRICITY” MENERGA DESIGNED FOR THE RECOVERY OF HEAT AND COLD, IT USES THE ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM COOLING WITHOUT ELECTRICITY ” ADIABATIC “OF EVAPORATING WATER.
THANKS TO THE DOUBLE HEAT EXCHANGER CROSS-FLOW, THE DEVICE ACHIEVES EFFICIENCIES OF OVER 75%. COOLING “ADIABATIC” PROVIDES A GREAT FEELING OF THERMAL COMFORT, ESPECIALLY IN SUMMER TO ACHIEVE THE OVERALL ENERGY PERFORMANCE – 10% OF THE REFERENCE RT 2005.
