HISTORY

This vast industrial site, built from 1935 to 1985, was occupied by the company Renova Bulex until the nineties. Left to go derelict, it was purchased by the SDRB. It envisaged a large-scale renovation programme that required a partnership with private industry. This is how the S.A. Birmingham was born, bringing together the companies JCX Immo and CIT Blaton, in the project. JCX Immo is responsible for the project management (design, building site supervision) and the marketing for the apartments and offices.

SPACE IN A LUMINOUS FRAMEWORK

Comprising three sets of buildings with a concrete structure, connected around patios and an esplanade, this important site forms a particularly interesting enclosed whole allowing the development of an architecture of footpaths, ramps and stairs. In each apartment, the large divided windows and the unobstructed view offer great illumination, unusual in the city. Precise attention was paid to the roofs, from which a panoramic view of the surroundings is afforded. They are provided with terrasses, both for the offices and for the apartments.
