Rising on the iconic skyline of La Défense, Tour Saint-Gobain is a contemporary high-rise defined by its crystalline façade and refined architectural expression. Designed by Valode & Pistre, the 165-meter-tall tower comprises 44 floors, forming a landmark where transparency, light, and performance converge. Metal Yapı delivered the engineering and realization of the building’s advanced façade systems, translating the architectural vision into a high-performance envelope. The façade was engineered to maximize natural daylight while ensuring high thermal efficiency, visual comfort, and long-term durability. Precision detailing and controlled reflectivity create a dynamic interaction with light, reinforcing the tower’s “crystal” identity. Through meticulous engineering and high-quality fabrication, Metal Yapı contributed to a façade solution that balances architectural elegance with environmental performance, leaving a distinctive signature on one of Paris’s most prominent business district landmarks.
