Designed as an atrium around a garden, L'Atria uses a wide variety of materials and colours, making play with forms and volumes to combine architectural quality with quality of use. The apartments benefit from generous outside space (balconies, verandas or patios). In addition, almost all of them have windows on two sides, giving them first-rate views of the interior garden, the Garonne or the Bordeaux roofscape.
Awarded Habitat & Environment certification, the programme won the regional sustainable development prize and the top regional prize at the 2008 Pyramides awards organised by the French Developers and Builders Federation.
L’Atria's architect, Christian de Portzamparc, also designed Galeo, Bouygues Immobilier's headquarters, the French Embassy in Berlin, the Cidade da Musica in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and the new Masséna Seine district on the Left Bank of Paris. Acknowledged all over the world as a leading theorist of urban planning and design, he has worked in particular on the "open block" concept. He was awarded the Grand Prix de l'Urbanisme, France's most prestigious planning prize, in 2004.

Situé sur la rive droite de la Garonne, face au centre-ville de Bordeaux, l’Atria est au point de rencontre entre le quartier ancien de la Bastide et la zone d’aménagement concerté (ZAC) « Cœur de la Bastide ». Ancien faubourg populaire qui connaît depuis quelques années un véritable renouveau, la Bastide réussit la synthèse entre une nature omniprésente (les berges de la Garonne, le jardin botanique) et des structures nécessaires à la vie urbaine (écoles, faculté, cinéma, commerces…). Avec ses 108 logements, l’Atria participe à la réhabilitation de cet ensemble.
