Renovating the Access Points of a Former Royal Abbey
Our strenghts:
- Better thermal insulation
- Preservation of the building’s architecture
- Modernization and automation of access points
- Enhanced customer experience
The Abbaye de Talloires wanted to modernize and automate its access points while preserving the building’s authenticity and architectural charm.
Building erected in 1018 (the current architecture dates from this period, after two previous constructions were destroyed by fire). In 866, Talloires became known as a kind of “monastery” – it is considered one of the oldest hotels and inns in France.
The current owner is gradually renovating the building and aims to install more efficient systems to reduce heat loss, including automatic and modernized access solutions, while preserving the architectural character (a square-shaped abbey with a large inner garden – still intact).
The client’s wish is to preserve the authenticity and charm of the historic building while modernizing
certain installations.
