Construction of "La Serre sur le Toit", a 4,500 m² space in the heart of Strasbourg's Archipel 2 district, has just begun, adding a new dynamic to the city's urban landscape. Located in the rapidly changing Archipel 2 district, the project aims to provide a stimulating living and working environment that blends harmoniously into a sustainable development approach.
The "La Serre sur le Toit" project stands out for its unique approach. This two-unit office building is designed to incorporate greenery at every level, and is open to all users. A rooftop garden and a gourmet hall on the first floor create spaces that encourage exchanges and conviviality in the heart of the Wacken district.
Archipel 2, of which "La Serre sur le Toit" is a part, has been designed as a mixed-use and inclusive district, featuring infrastructures adapted to new professional expectations. The building features coworking and coliving spaces, responding to modern users' need for flexibility and sharing.
Committed to the ecological transition, "La Serre sur le Toit" meets the most demanding standards in terms of energy efficiency and environmental impact. Awarded the HQE (Excellent) label and E2C1 certification, the project is part of a sustainable construction approach. Thanks to the installation of photovoltaic panels on the roof, part of the building's energy needs will be covered by self-consumption, helping to stabilize occupants' energy costs despite volatile electricity prices. In addition, a rainwater recovery system has been installed to optimize water resource management.
The halle gourmande on the first floor is not just a commercial space; it was designed to liven up the neighborhood, offering local produce and providing a meeting place for residents and workers alike. As for the roof garden, it represents a unique space for relaxation, combining greenery and a panoramic view of Strasbourg. This two-level garden creates a real bubble of nature, allowing users to recharge their batteries in the middle of the city.
Archipel 2, where "La Serre sur le Toit" is being developed, aims to become a model of a resilient neighborhood, strengthening links between Strasbourg and its neighboring districts through active pathways and footbridges. The building's open, welcoming structure reflects the desire to make neighborhood life and professional activities cohabit, with infrastructures adapted to soft mobility and new work habits.
This project is a fine example of integrated urban planning, combining architectural innovation and ecological responsibility.
