New London Architecture

Grenoble Open Innovation Centre

Under Construction

The OIC is dedicated to collaborative innovation for radical transformations of the contemporary world. Its design sets the composition for the buildings surrounding an elliptical public space.

The building marks the gateway to a new research and ecological district. Its design sets the composition principles that are adopted by the façades of three other buildings surrounding an elliptical public space ‘Place Mandela’. The façade plays on the kinetic perception induced by the dynamic shift of viewpoint created by the roundabout, tramway and cycling path movement. It transforms as you move around the building from reflecting unique mountainous setting surrounding the city to opening itself up and revealing the collaborative nature of the activities within. Winter gardens contribute to the animation of the façade and to Place Mandela.
