A brief is a short version of a case study.
Located on what was one of the last remaining sites in the La Défense high-rise business district just west of Paris, Tour CBX (CBX Tower) projects an iconic image while providing a high-quality working environment and making efficient use of a site constrained by its small size and by view-corridor restrictions. The 44,000-square-meter (473,612 sf) tower’s footprint occupies half of the site’s 2,400 square meters (25,833 sf). An innovative podium and elliptical floor-plate design provide up to 1,500 square meters (16,146 sf) of space on each of the 34 upper floors.
