The REGAIN building will offer +/- 1.000 m² floor surface, 1/3 dedicated to an industrial hall and 2/3 dedicated to office spaces.
The project focuses on an integrated management of environmental concerns and energy. Its definition and design have been organised in an integrated way : all the technical expertise had been gathered in one group, comprising the architect, the engineers and its specialized contractors (HVAC and passive house specialists), the academic advisor and the REGAIN project manager.
Even though this method seems to be obviously good practice, it is not often used in the building industry where each specialist work alone and coordination is often too minimal.
