French Embassy
The new French embassy is located opposite large botanical gardens.
Glass and aluminium external cladding; lined inside with timber, stone and leather, it is designed around three elements - the atrium, chancellery and loggia facade.

The atrium with its overhead light filtered through sycamore blades; chancellery with its carefully decorated ambassador court: passageway panelled in timber, lined with a thick slate wall; and loggia facade with white aluminium panels enhanced by protruding stainless steel sections, sheltering access to the embassy via the “main door” and national banner.
