Appearing as if it were part of the surrounding greenery, the Regional Chamber Building by Chartier-Corbasson Architectes is a highly unconventional office construction.

Located beside an 100-year-old mansion in the northern French city of Amiens, this building is exemplary in it use of space. The framed design appears as if it were [organically emerging from its mossy surroundings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bochum-office) whilst embodying a modern day architectural aesthetic. The [deep-framed windows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acvcscmetea) and open concept design make for the perfect site to house the Regional Chamber of Commerce and Industry for Picardy.

This state-of-the-art building makes for an unconventional site to house the institution and is an addition to the historically beautiful Hôtel Bouctôt Vagniez. Inspired by a [Japanese garden aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimoflage), this Chartier-Corbasson Architectes makes for a delightful addition to the city's old charm.
