Standing like a new beacon on the Parisian skyline, Racine ushers the former headquarters of the ONF (National Forestry Office) into a new era. Designed by Maud Caubet’s agency, the tower features an innovative elevation, which shelters an agricultural greenhouse and is an outstanding example of material efficiency. The project skillfully integrates existing structures with the right materials in the right places to optimize performance and minimize carbon footprint.

Soon to be completed, the building is a true demonstration of how architecture can address the environmental challenges of our time.

Maud Caubet emphasizes, “Racine Tower is more than just a renovation. It is a symbol of how we can combine architectural tradition with sustainable innovations to build the cities of tomorrow“.
