Novotel Paris Porte de Versailles - Hôtel pour les séjours en famille et les voyages d'affaires - Sustainable construction

Novotel Paris Porte de Versailles is part of a project to extend and transform the Porte de Versailles Exhibition Centre. Architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte’s mission is to design buildings in compliance with the double certification HQE and BREEAM. So what’s that all about?

BREEAM – A certification method that addresses both ecological and socio-cultural aspects on the global consequences of construction. In a nutshell, waste treatment becomes as much a priority as the management and well-being of the teams on the construction site.

HQE – This certification focuses on comfort and health requirements. It evaluates thermal comfort, access to daylight and views, as well as the sanitary quality standards of a building and its utilities.
