The team at Atelier Delalande Tabourin designs the Office National des Forêts. It is located in Versailles and this expansion brings the concept to another level. The building is right by a railway and forest around it and the building fully embraces its surroundings seamlessly.
The structure reflects the forestry office and its activities down to the palette and materials. It is purposefully blended into the forest and the space is great for visitors and employees to engage with the building in an immersive way. All of the elements developed are meant to bring attention to the craftsmanship and intricacies. The facade and roof are made from locally sourced wood and are carefully processed to the project's needs.
