Jakob + MacFarlane has designed a new headquarters building for EuroNews, one of the mainstream European media. The building is located in the Lyon harbour area of France. It has a rich emerald green outer skin and two huge oval holes.


The facade of the building uses a light enamel curtain wall covered with irregular porous aluminum cladding. The color boldly chose green, which was inspired by the color of the river and used this form to establish a connection between the building and the undulating landscape on the other side. Inside the building, it contains two main functions: one is the public service area on the first floor, including the entrance hall and restaurant, and the other is the headquarters of Euronews, with various offices, recording studios and multimedia spaces. The entrance hall traverses the ground and connects the pier to the road to the east. The office is distributed in six places: the first and second floors include the editorial department, while the remaining two each have two studios.
