The new headquarters of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) marks the end of the urban axis to the Palais des Nations, frames the park and forms an urban ensemble with the Montbrillant building and the tower. A sustainable two-storey timber frame structure allows generous spans and flexible partitioning of the office space. The low-rise building allows for a transparent and healthy working environment thanks to its spacious, open floor plan with various outdoor areas such as atriums, courtyards and balconies.
