Metal Yapı contributed to the façade engineering of the VINCI Group Headquarters (Archipel) in Nanterre, a 74,000 m² contemporary office campus designed by Jean-Paul Viguier & Associés and Marc Mimram Architecture & Ingénierie. Composed of five interconnected buildings, the project redefines the relationship between architecture, city, and landscape within the La Défense district.
Metal Yapı delivered high-precision engineering and production solutions for the project’s complex façade systems, integrating electrochromic glazing, photovoltaic elements, and advanced envelope technologies. The transparent façade balances daylight control, energy efficiency, acoustic performance, and architectural clarity while supporting the project’s sustainability objectives.
Developed through fully integrated BIM workflows, the façade systems contribute to achieving BREEAM “Excellent” and HQE “Exceptional” certifications, incorporating ultra-low-carbon and recycled materials at scale.
The VINCI Headquarters façade reflects Metal Yapı’s expertise in delivering innovative, high-performance building envelopes for large-scale, sustainability-driven developments bearing the signature of advanced façade engineering.
