A vast linear forecourt imposes a certain urbanisation onto the site.  Mineral concourse consolidated by a landscape walk, it becomes an interval, a carpark and a commercial facility, embellishing the customers’ wandering. Access is identified with a broad canopy.

As for the facade, it is abstract: in the lower section, a signage band able to control advertising media, and coloured slats on the upper section, placed horizontally and projecting, making beautiful vibrations through reflections on its smooth metal skin.
