The waste-management center of Bessancourt is integrated in a green box, giving incredible views of the buildings from the exterior. This eco-construction stands out thanks to its vegetalized roofs, the wooden facade and wood-colored mineral coating. The water meadows dedicated to rainwater infiltration are house to aquatic plants and biodiversity.
