“We are very excited to take on this new adventure, its challenges and rewards. Well done to the team!” the company said on Facebook, announcing their first project in Paris. Ooh, la, la!

The hospital, originally opened in 1935, is now a university hospital catering for the population. “The hospital campus area is 9 hectares, with internal roads and green areas. The buildings were built over the years as the hospital expanded,” AP Valletta shared in their website’s news section.

“The lift extension will be located in an existing courtyard, in a corner of the building. The project will be developed in collaboration with our local partner Bruno Michel from BUREAU D’ARCHITECTURE,” they shared. Stay tuned for more information.
