In 2019, the Ycone tower marks the return of Jean Nouvel to Lyon. Located in the heart of the La Confluence district, the Ycone residence is easily identifiable by its light yet powerful silhouette.
Ycone’s atypical façade was born out of the search for an alternative to a honeycomb underside to absorb wind vibrations.
La façade atypique d’Ycone est née de la recherche d’une alternative à une sous face en nids d’abeilles pour absorber les vibrations du vent.
