For 2:pm Architectures, it is important to prove that today, building a sustainable and energy-efficient building is not necessarily synonymous with building in wood. Sustainable development must begin with a general reflection of the building process, including its materials. Therefore, the project is the choice of expressing a habitat in the density of implantation and two totaling 11 units. These two types present two ways to integrate into the site, two wills of dialogue with the slope which meet the demands of the various programmatic typologies. More images and architects’ description after the break.

Indeed the extensive use of a material can quickly become detrimental to the economic market. Steel is a building material to take into account for sustainable development considerations in many aspects. The steel is recycled and reclaimed 100% and is reusable indefinitely with all of its original properties found after the treatment of the material.
