THE25 is an exhibition, relaxation and communication space. It consists of a open space with a central bar, framed on one side by a meeting room and on the other by a terrace. A service hallway serves as a library and accommodates the utilities (toilets, mechanical room...).  All of this is illuminated from above by a sawtooth roof as the site is firmly wedged into the existing urban fabric.
