Ecological design and functioning
By giving it a real ecological function, IKO anticipated the discreet integration of the complex into the landscape.
Protecting
Sheltering protected species
Designed by Tom Beiler, an architect from the Luxembourg firm Beiler + François Architectes, the Borders facades are covered in a mix of wood and plants.
The wooden cladding has a dual purpose. It is aesthetic, as it helps the building blend into the landscape between the vineyards and the Moselle, and environmental, as it provides a home for protected species in the adjacent Natura 2000 zone.
