PCA-STREAM was tasked by Groupama to design an innovative tower that will renew the image of La Défense. Revisiting the model of the traditional tower, The Link is emblematic of the transformation of working practices and a new relation to the city. Its morphology in two wings connected to one another with platforms called “links” allows the tower to provide spaces that foster interactions and collective intelligence, and gives an unprecedented place to nature in a high-rise building.

In the heart of the City of London, PCA-STREAM has designed a tower that responds to changing working patterns and the place of tertiary complexes in the city. Its volumetric structure in two sections of distinct heights allows it to blend delicately into the skyline, while the activation of its base by a rich programming opens it up to its neighborhood.
