第一家工厂建于70年代，改造的目的是增加和优化其生产能力。设备的城市层面已经引导我们走向开放和热情好客的战略。这一基础设施以前被拒绝和隐藏，现在被重新安置在城市舞台上，以便发挥公众作用，并成为象征性的。

The first plant was built in the 70s and the aim of this renovation is to increase and optimize its capacity. The urban dimension of the equipment has guided us towards a strategy of opening-up and hospitality. Previously rejected and hidden, this infrastructure is now relocated on the urban scene, so as to have a public role and to become symbolic.

定期向游客开放，这一设备将成为一个里程碑和一个经验的水过滤公园。正式的战略包括沿着河流的主轴，花园，新建筑和坦克。建筑物将被翻新，其立面将完全重新设计成城市规模的过滤器。

Regularly open to visitors, this equipment will become both a landmark and an experiential water filtering park. The formal strategy consists of a main axis along the river where gardens, new buildings and tanks are located. Buildings will be renovated and their façades completely redesigned as urban scale filters.
