ARCHITECTS CASE STUDY
ORANGE VILLAGE
AN INNOVATIVE AND TIMELESS BUILDING
Through an architectural approach anchored in sustainability , the architects chose to design an imposing building with futuristic style on 7 levels in the form of rings of 68 diameter meters . With a double skin holding both thermal and aesthetic functions , the new Orange Côte d ’ Ivoire headquarters is innovative in its shape , suggestive of a golf ball , a subtle reminder of Abidjan ’ s renowned Riviera golf course .
In a form of a natural extension of the neighboring vegetal axis , the building stands tall by the lagoon in an architecture that aims to materialize the group ’ s dynamics and overall offer , all the while enhancing and highlighting the local know-how . Going beyond the concept of the classic workplace , the challenge for Koffi & Diabaté was to create a building designed as a place of exchange and creativity , reflecting the DNA of the group .
