For biodiversity

The Campus Paris Saint-Germain is located on an exceptional site, close to the Coteaux de la Seine. The new centre is built in such a way that it respects the natural landscape and its biodiversity: less than 10% of the site’s surface area is taken up by buildings. Through the choices made in terms of design, layout and energy and resource management, Paris Saint-Germain has aimed for environmental excellence.

RESPECTING THE SITE’S NATURAL LANDSCAPE

The site is located in a hilly area, in the heart of a remarkable natural landscape with beautiful views. Preserving this unique identity was one of the keys to Wilmotte & Associés’ architectural project, and one of the main reasons the club selected their proposal.

 

Inspired by the natural surroundings and their rural identity, the landscaping of the site by Neveux Rouyer creates visual perspectives and ecological continuity that respect the omnipresent natural backdrop.

PRESERVING AND ENHANCING THE SITE'S BIODIVERSITY

The site and its surrounding area include:

  • a vegetable garden and orchards, the fruit and vegetables from which will be eaten on site by the Club’s players and employees;
  • fields and grassy areas to recreate the natural habitats required to preserve the species present on the site.

 

What is more, the project is doing its best to preserve the Forest of Marly, a cherished reservoir of biodiversity located right next to the site, by extending
the woodland.

 

The project also includes planting

4,000 trees on the site.

trees planted on the site, 80% of them indigenous species

A FOCUS ON SHORT-DISTANCE SOURCING AND RESPONSIBLE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

In addition to the fruit and vegetables grown on site, Paris Saint-Germain buys in fresh produce from local producers to promote local food supply channels.

 

The training centre requires significant amounts of water and energy. With the aim of setting an ecological example, the project has been designed in such a way that the buildings’ energy performance is optimised, and its water resources are managed in the best way possible. As an example, rainwater is collected and used to water the pitches.

 

Finally, users will travel between the club’s two sites (Parc des Princes and Campus Paris Saint-Germain) in a fleet of electric and/or hybrid vehicles.
