CHEVAL MARIN – BRUSSELS CENTRE (BE)
Restoration of an historical building
The building previously housed a port operations
facility and has been listed since 2002. It was
abandoned since 1999, before our acquisition.
We brought it up to current safety and comfort
standards and completely refurbished it according
to the restoration requirements of Monuments
and Sites (reuse of existing materials, upgraded
insulation, use of natural and environmental-friendly
products).
The ground floor has been returned to commercial
use and two high-quality flats have been built on
the upper floors.
We contributed to the revitalisation of this urban
district and to the heritage conservation thanks to
this renovation.
SUSTAINABLE MEASURES
Reuse of wooden floors and frameworks
Overglazing
Use of natural and environmental-friendly
products: wood fibre insulation, lime plaster,
natural linseed oil paint
Condensing boiler
Double-flow ventilation
