VALBONNE SOPHIA-ANTIPOLIS – FRANCE
1997 – 2010​

After creating two levels of offices in its trial hall, with an independent para-seismic building to house its department for solar research, C.S.T.B. just added a solar laboratory on top of that very building in Sophia-Antipolis. High above ground to avoid the shade caused by surrounding trees, this structure of steel is intended for testing solar panels and associated water heaters.
