Pure Parilly is a stylish residential complex with 116 flats in R+8, harmoniously grouped around a spacious garden with shady trees. Here, modernity and environmental friendliness combine to create a unique living space. The project is part of the comprehensive Grand Parilly urban regeneration programme in Vénissieux.
Sponsored by Icade and designed by architects TECTONIQUES ARCHITECTES & INGENIEURS and BBC & ASSOCIÉS, Pure Parilly combines wood, concrete and metal in an innovative bioclimatic approach. Icade attaches great importance to ecological concerns and is aiming for the demanding NF habitat Haute Qualité Environnementale label with this residence. With the clear aim of reducing energy costs, Pure Parilly is a pioneer in sustainable living.
‘One of the most challenging aspects of this project was to harmoniously integrate the prefabricated timber elements into the concrete and metal structures while meeting the bioclimatic requirements of the site. This project is an excellent example of our ability to overcome complex technical challenges while adding aesthetic and environmental value,’ explains Emmanuel Duval, Site Manager.
One of the biggest challenges of this construction site was to combine the assembly of the timber frame façades with the production of special balconies, prioritising prefabrication in the workshop. Our façades were fitted with high-quality joinery and metal and timber cladding in the workshop. Thanks to our expertise in off-site manufacturing, we guarantee the highest quality and on-time delivery.
Pure Parilly is an impressive example of the possibilities of timber construction: modern, sustainable living spaces that blend harmoniously into the urban environment.
