Architecture

The architecture reflects this desire for innovation and creates the true unity of place, time and action. By the homogeneity of forms and materials, this fluid writing unifies and encompasses the diversity of the 14 buildings and their uses (production, offices, etc.)

See technical information

The project is located on the Airbus Helicopters site in Marignane, and more particularly in buildings N5 (rotor and transmission workshop, benches and offices) and N6 (multi-purpose benches and logistics store).

The MECA 4.0 project site has an unobstructed view to the airport to the northwest and to one of the main traffic routes of the Airbus site to the west. In a more contemporary architectural style, it will be a question of inscribing and integrating as much as possible the project in this continuity of alignment of existing buildings, in compliance with the rules of prospect, size and color.
