ZIN
ZIN is a redevelopment project of the former 1970s WTC towers located in the heart of the North Area, the high-rise district of Brussels. After dismantling – while keeping the existing structural concrete cores – the 30-story rebuilt towers will be connected by a new volume of 14 levels benefiting each of a double height for office use. ZIN will bring together different uses in an innovative way: each tower will combine either residential/office or hotel/office thanks to intertwined levels. Public spaces will be provided in the conservatory greenhouse and on the 100-m high 110-m long shared landscaped rooftop promenade.

BNP Paribas Fortis HQ at Montagne du Parc
The BNP Paribas Fortis Headquarters building is located exactly where it stood for the last 200 years. The new building follows again the original street alignment and makes reference both to the 12-m difference in height that separates Brussels’ “Ville Haute” from the “Ville Basse”, and the existing building heights in the area. The use of existing basement areas as a seasonal heat store keeps the mechanical plant to a minimum. A series of vast curvilinear landscaped courtyards and a large atrium provide the 4,500 building’s users and the general public with high-quality spaces in the heart of Brussels.
