Buchinger Wilhelmi Therapeutic Fasting Centre
Designed by Jean-Paul Gomis Architect, this 18,000 m² therapeutic fasting and wellness centre is located in the hills of Roquefort-les-Pins on the Côte d’Azur.
The project comprises a 95-room facility incorporating spa and wellness areas, medical and care facilities, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a restaurant, sports and activity rooms, and private villas intended to offer enhanced privacy and tranquility.
Set within a 44-hectare site, the complex is designed to integrate with its natural surroundings. The project is seeking BDM Gold certification, reflecting a strong focus on sustainable planning and design.
CLIENT
Buchinger Wilhelmi Immobilier
LOCATION
Roquefort-les-Pins, France
COMPLETED
In Progress (estimated completion in 2029)
Our Scope
Marshall Day Acoustics is responsible for all acoustic aspects of the project, from initial briefing through detailed design and construction phase support, to commissioning measurements.
CHALLENGES
One of the main challenges is achieving acoustic quality in the rooms, which must meet luxury hotel standards to ensure residents can rest in a place dedicated to calm and rejuvenation. Areas generating noise and vibration, such as the gym, swimming pools, spa, kitchens and plant rooms must be carefully assessed.
Acoustic excellence, as requested by the client, must integrate seamlessly with the interior design by Matteo Thun, while also meeting BDM Gold and Ecrains requirements. Noise mitigation for the large external heating and cooling equipment is another key challenge, as the centre is located in a particularly quiet environment and the scale of the equipment requires tailored acoustic treatment solutions planned early in the design process.
