For the release of its new "model Executive " C6, Citroën appealed to the architectural Neutral partners (Tapio Snellman and Christian Grou) to design a box suitable - by setting mean garage - to the aesthetics.
According to Christian Grou, the C6 is so unique that it deserved more than an ordinary building brick or concrete .
The architects have not been using the back of the spoon given that the garage costs about 3 times more expensive than the car itself ... in other words, it takes € 165,650 (in Britain).
The garage is designed as a sculpture (small Zaha's touch?) used to wrap the car, protect it (logic), but also expose the public (less logical).
curves of the building take their inspiration from those in the car and the walls are mostly sliding translucent. Another plus: the vision control glass that can switch between a transparent state to an opaque state under the influence of an electric current. The roof of the building in turn comes as a terrace perched in the garden.
Suffice to say it takes a lot to love his car to offer him "this jewel."
