The new iconic project in Cloche d'Or

IKO has designed this new emblematic building in Cloche d’Or with the well-being of its occupants as its main concern.

Envisioned as a true destination for both work and life, it fosters dynamic interactions, creativity, and innovation, while providing an environment meticulously designed to enhance the well-being and health of its occupants.

In addition to its iconic façade, this project is outstanding in terms of its urban situation and environmental goals.

Strategically facing the main boulevard Raiffeisen, within the new prestigious business district, featuring cutting-edge design.

Cloche d’Or is a new area dedicated to business, with a strong environmental commitment, and an ideal location at the entrance to central Luxembourg. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and other services nearby, and ekxo can easily be reached by car (via the motorways), by train, and by tram.

An ideal place to work, live and socialise

The building is intended as a place to work, live and socialise for its user community, encouraging interaction, creativity, performance and innovation.

With a design geared to promote occupants’ well-being, it is outstanding in terms of its urban situation, iconic façade and environmental goals.

Flexibility and modularity of office spaces

IKO designs flexible and modular office spaces tailored to meet your needs.

Exoskeleton

A sober, elegant and natural look

ekxo stands out with its oblique metal exoskeleton, inspired by abstract optical art patterns. More than just an aesthetic feature, this bioclimatic exoskeleton protects the building’s thermal envelope, optimizing interior comfort by filtering heat and weather conditions for year-round well-being.

The peripheral walkways, with varying widths, along with motorized exterior blinds, offer passive solar protection and create pleasant outdoor spaces on the East and West facades. The white metal structure acts as a light filter during the day, while the glass and aluminum facade floods the offices with natural light, highlighting their warm, wood-toned ambiance.
