Flexible office spaces with circular façade structures in the Cloche d’Or district
Prism
Located in the Cloche d’Or district in Luxembourg, Prism exemplifies contemporary office architecture. The building was developed with a strong focus on circular load-bearing structures, BREEAM Excellent certification, and a flexible layout of workspaces. Thanks to its triangular plot and modular façade architecture, Prism combines aesthetics with maximum use of interior space.

Modular and flexible concept
The building comprises six levels (ground floor +4 / -1) with a usable interior surface of 4,780 m². These spaces are leased in modules ranging from 350 to 1,050 m², offering a wide variety of office layouts.
- Open-plan offices and meeting rooms: flexible workspaces tailored to needs.
- Breakout areas and kitchenettes: enhancing comfort and collaboration.
- Top floor: recessed volume with a rear terrace.
- Entrance zone: recessed with a water feature guiding visitors into the lobby.
Architecture and design
The façades consist of slats in architectural concrete with a 135 cm modulation, combined with anodised aluminium window frames.
- The load-bearing character of the façades creates large column-free spaces.
- The play of shadows from the slats provides a sun-shading function.
- The geometric expression gives the building a distinct identity.
Energy and certification
Prism was designed according to the strictest sustainability criteria and aims for the BREEAM Excellent certification. It meets the current Luxembourg energy standards and makes use of energy-efficient construction and materials.
