Energy-intensive building

General information

The building at 43 rue de Châteaudun in Paris 9th is located in the so-called "Chaussée d'Antin" district, between the Trinité d'Estienne d'Orves and ND de Lorette metro stations (line 12), with high tertiary activity.

The building, built in 1864, is edified on a plot of 170 m², raised on a basement level, in G+5+C and comprising 2 courtyards. Transformed for office use in the 1960s, it had entirely commercial status, housing office floors on the upper floors, 2 shops on the ground floor, and housing.

The works project consists of the heavy rehabilitation of a Haussmannian building, supplemented by a redistribution of the office floors into 6 family social housing units: the building thus regains its original residential use.

This project, integrating a double environmental certification, includes the reuse of salvageable heritage elements (parquet floors, cast iron radiators, etc.).

Certification: NF HABITAT HQE (CERQUAL)

Energy label : BBC Renovation

BDF Silver level recognition - Achievement phase issued by Ekopolis

More information :

The heritage preservation of the street facade and the interior walls on the main facade led to limiting the interior insulation to the dividing walls between common areas and housing and the rear facade. The replacement of all the windows with wooden exterior joinery with double glazing coupled with the installation of an individual gas condensing heating system and the initial inertia of the building ensured satisfactory thermal comfort.

Environment

Urban environment

The project is located in a dense urban area, right in the heart of the 9th arrondissement of Paris. Many services and transport are close to the building. The area is made up of office buildings. The building at 43 rue de Chateaudun has been transformed from office use into housing. The accommodations are through and benefit from a beautiful natural light as well as the calm of the heart of the island.

Land plot area : 170,00 m²
Built-up area : 100,00 %

Products

Product

Ventilation VMC hygro B

Product category : Génie climatique, électricité / Ventilation, rafraîchissement

To renew the air in a home, the installation of controlled mechanical ventilation (VMC) is ideal. Type B hygro-adjustable (also called “hygro”) VMC models regulate the inlet and outlet flows according to the ambient humidity.

Contest

Reasons for participating in the competition(s)

This project to transform offices into housing is part of an "already there" approach that leads to improving the building by combining technical, environmental and heritage constraints. The technical qualities of the building allowed its reversibility, the building returning to its original use. The facades and interior moldings have been preserved. The treatment of the floors could be carried out by taking into account the acoustic subject (very busy street and proximity to the metro under the building), by isolating "but not too much", so as not to degrade the acoustic conditions between dwellings, at the interior of the building. In this process of "preservation" and possible reuse, an inventory was carried out empirically. This project, launched in 2016, is a premise for circular economy initiatives. It was also part of the pilot projects of the "Bâtiment Durable Francilien (BDF)" initiative in 2017.

This change of use contributes to urban diversity in Paris, but also to social diversity since 6 social family housing units (T4) have been created. The accommodation on the 1st floor has also been designed to facilitate the reception of a person with reduced mobility (walk-in shower, grab and lift bars).
