Green light for the National Bank
Permit obtained for the renovation of a remarkable building in the heart of the Brussels capital! Originally custom-built for a specific use, the National Bank building is about to be reconverted into a versatile, urban-integrated mixed-use building. The project aims to preserve the existing structure's essence while ensuring its adaptability and longevity.
The building's distinct morphological and spatial traits have directly contributed in shaping its program. These attributes facilitate functional mixity, aligning with contemporary needs and with the neighborhood's aspirations for increased diversity. All the while revitalizing a landmark initially designed for a singular function, the carefully analyzed interior spaces will host a diverse program made of offices (8.600 m²), residential units (apartments and rooms for co-living), SME workspaces (4.500 m²) and retail (2.500 m²) spaces working together to uphold the building's coherence and flexibility over time.
The project aspires to be exemplary in heritage preservation, functional diversity, and redevelopment excellence. This ambition is reflected in meticulous architectural detailing and in the pursuit of BREEAM and WELL certifications.
