Zoku and Covivio have announced the signing of a hotel management contract that will see Zoku’s first French location open this Autumn.
Zoku will bring its unique living and business hub to a 5,500 square metre space within the Stream Building mixed-use program, located in the 17th District of Paris.
Winner of the Réinventer Paris competition, the mixed-use Stream Building project is in the heart of a fast-growing district, the Clichy-Batignolles ZAC, opposite the new Paris Court of Justice and closed to a 10-hectare urban park. It has great views of the surrounding area and is easily accessible, with line 14 located at the foot of the building.
With its architecture designed by PCA-STREAM, Stream Building is spread over 16,200 square metres and over 8 floors. It contains 9,600 square metres of offices and services (ground floor to 5th floor); 1,100 square metres of retail spaces (ground floor to 1st floor), 5,500 square metres of hotel and long-term stay residence with 109 Loft rooms (6th floor to 8th floor) operated by Zoku, 700 square metres of social spaces with restaurant, bar, co-working area and event space (8th floor) operated by Zoku, and a 190 square metre rooftop connected to the hotel.
In addition to its exceptional location, its unique mix of uses and workspaces allows Stream Building to offer its occupants an entire range of services to facilitate their daily lives. These range from a welcoming work café offering a barista and concierge service, to a catering service, a space for meetings and conferences, a fitness area, a mobile application, 22 parking spaces, half of which are equipped for electric vehicles, and around 200 bicycle spaces.
Stream Building is also a benchmark for innovation and carbon footprint reduction, with a mix of wood and concrete architecture and incorporating a rooftop vegetable garden: which includes a hop facade and solar panels.
Finally, Stream Building is aiming for the highest certifications and labels: BBCA, Effinergie +, HQE tertiary Exceptional, BREEAM Excellent, Environmental and sustainable development specisifications for the Clichy-Batignolles ZAC, Paris Climate Plan and E+C-.
The programmatic and architectural reflection of this mixed, modular and responsible building is the result of a participative co-design method, coordinated by PCA-STREAM, around an international and multidisciplinary team. A public consultation was also organised to gather the wishes and needs of residents regarding the expected shops.
