Realex
Realex is a mixed-use development project in the heart of Brussels’ European District. Encompassing the new development of the European Commission’s Conference Center, it also includes an adjacent office building, along with retail space and public facilities.
This highly energy-performa new building is designed to the highest standards of energy efficiency, well-being, and environmental certifications, and will feature an envelope equipped with photovoltaic cells to enable local energy production.
In term of outdoor spaces, meet “Pocket Park”, nestled between Rue J. de Lalaing and Rue de la Loi which offers a refreshing retreat for relaxation and social interactions. In addition, the office building will boast a seventh-floor terrace, offering a splendid view of the European District.
The site’s direct connection to the Maelbeek multimodal transport hub places accessibility at the forefront of its design. Realex will also provide a parking facility for 220 cars, charging points for electric vehicles, as well as convenient facilities for bicycles and cargo bikes, including showers and lockers.
Realex is certified “BREEAM Outstanding” at the design stage and is aligned with EU Taxonomy. It is designed to achieve WELL Platinum, DGNB Gold, and EPC A for offices while adhering to the principles of the New European Bauhaus.
Notably, the conference center has already been sold to the European Commission, marking a significant milestone in this transformative initiative.
