Sometimes, clichés are not so far from the truth. Yes, at Beau Plan, each new project is first and foremost the result of a vision. The vision of a place, an atmosphere or even a way of life. And even before shaping the architectural plans or thinking about the landscaped spaces, it is the name given to this new development that comes to embody its full character.
Indigo, Mango Village, The Strand… Whether it is an office development, a shopping promenade or a residential project, the name assigned to it aims to tell a story and convey an emotion that is unique to the place, as an extension of its identity. At Beau Plan, the choice becomes almost easy. With more than two centuries of history, the site brings together historical and industrial remains, a rich natural heritage and, for several years now, has become synonymous with a lifestyle of its own. Inspiration can be found on every street corner.
Here is an overview…
Mango Village
Bordering a beautiful avenue of mango trees in the heart of Beau Plan, these apartments and duplexes draw their roots and lifestyle from the historic landscape of the estate. Beyond this, the mango tree is also a strong symbol in local culture. It is associated with sharing, childhood memories and the conviviality of moments spent outdoors. The idea behind this name was therefore to recreate a warm and lively environment, like a village animated by community life and the simplicity of everyday living.
Indigo
This name is rooted in the very history of Beau Plan. It takes us back to 1776, when the estate was still an indigo plantation, producing this natural dye that was so rare and sought after at the time for the needs of Europe. The name therefore pays tribute to an integral part of the city’s heritage and creates a strong link between legacy and modernity. Elegant and timeless, the colour indigo is synonymous with creativity, refinement and depth, all aspects that resonate with the identity and ambition of the project.
Le Hameau
A hamlet is an intimate, peaceful village that evokes conviviality and community living. A name that perfectly reflects Beau Plan’s very first residential morcellement. This is how the project was imagined: as a warm and authentic place to live, where the balance between private and professional life feels right and natural. The result can be felt. Here, proximity, neighbourly relationships and a sense of belonging take precedence.
The Strand
This name is inspired by the location of the office project, which sits on the edge of Beau Plan’s lake.It is a name that makes perfect sense within the Beau Plan environment. Throughout the day, these offices offer a pleasant, active setting where it is good to work. Their proximity to the lake creates a natural connection between architecture and the surrounding environment. The name gives these offices their full character, marked by contemporary elegance within a peaceful setting. Finally, the name also reflects the ambition of the project: to offer a modern, open and inspiring workspace, where the presence of water brings serenity, fluidity and well-being to everyday life.
Mahogany Shopping Promenade
This is undoubtedly one of the city’s most emblematic naming choices. At the entrance of the shopping promenade stands a magnificent century-old mahogany tree, which led the architects to rethink their plans several times in order to better integrate it into the project’s environment. The name conveys the idea of a modern and pleasant destination with a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. This precious wood also evokes refinement and durability, values that are closely associated with this place, which has become a key destination in the minds of the region’s residents.
Together, these names each tell a part of Beau Plan’s story and form an integral part of the city’s identity. And this story continues to be written, neighbourhood by neighbourhood, weaving together the Beau Plan experience and inviting everyone to make it their own over time.
