Deerns Solutions

Deerns studied the project’s fluid dynamics, developing design strategies to ensure environmental performance compliant with HQE (Haute Qualité Environnementale) standards. For example, interior spaces are cooled and heated by a heat pump system with radiant floor panels in offices, and ceiling panels in meeting rooms.
