Abstract:
The renewed winery building for Haut-Bailly, a famous property in Bordeaux vineyard, should preserve the heritage of the existing buildings and combined vineyard/garden scenery of the estate. It should yet efficiently house the vinification, aging, and storage cellars. The spatial approach organizes visitors flowing around a circular vat room that allows for optimized integration of logistical movement. Landscape integration and structural efficiency were ensured with the 38 m span concrete vault which dominates this room at a height of 8.80 m, without posts, and supports a 2400 m2 hanging garden. Concrete was also selected for the thermal efficiency, enabling scenic spaces, sculptural and aesthetical effects of vats, walls and stairs, chemical compatibility with the vine preservation, leading to the highest environmental labels for the project.
