Housing units in Wasquehal
(59), France
THT wood for a new-build!
Ducerf’s high-temperature treated poplar cladding has been recommended for private and collective new-build housing units on Quai Canotiers in Wasquehal, right in the centre of the metropolitan district of Lille.
The choice of THT wood, an ecological material, matches the other materials used for the buildings: the enhancement of external aluminium joinery features, the blend of materials with Northern French brickwork and concrete, and special textures and volumes which give the roof a designer look.
