FULL PROJECT DETAILS: www.iguzzini.c...
This iconic building, commissioned by Renault and designed by the architect Claude Vasconi, was completed in 1984 and earned the architect the Grand Prix National de l'Architecture. Located near the Ile Seguin, 57 Métal is a founding part of this part of Boulogne and was refurbished for the first time in 2004. This task, entrusted to the architects Jakob+MacFarlane, was carried out at Renault’s request, who wanted to use the complex for key communication events.
The result of a collaboration between Dominique Perrault and BNP Paribas Real Estate, in concert with the city of Boulogne-Billancourt and the heirs of Claude Vasconi represented by architect Ignacio Prego, METAL 57 has won four awards, including the MIPIM in the 'Best Refurbished Building' category.
