Hermitage Plaza

Project Name: Hermitage Plaza

Location: Paris, France

Architect(s): Norman Foster

Cost: €250 Million

Other Contributers: LERA International

Website: TBA

The designs for these buildings had actually been chosen through the Tour Signal Contest. Initially, the winning was created by Jean Nouvel (French architect of Ateliers Jean Nouvel), but due to disagreement issues, and the Hermitage SAS (developers) announced that they would go forward with Norman's Foster's design.

Although the design of the building is exquisite, the main pointer of these buildings is the location of the buildings and the effect they will have on the surrounding area. The building is to be located at Le Defense, which is located in Paris, in an area where its surrounded by cafes and shops. The presence of the building will create a sustainable, high density community perfect for socializing.

The buildings will offer various facilities, such as a spa, a gallery and auditorium, panoramic apartments and serviced apartments.

This project is due for completion in 2016.
