Prizes: A total of CHF 83.000 (€66.700) in prizes
Type: Open competition for architects.
Architectural competition organized by the city of Lancy to choose a project for the construction of Plateau centre for neighborhood.
This project is in the center of the district of Marbriers currently being developed along the Route de Saint-Georges.
The aim of the competition is to create a community center for the entire population, children, young and old. It will be friendly, versatile and flexible to develop all kinds of activities (free accommodation, cultural activities and exchanges, parties).
The future community center will take place in a relatively small area, surrounded by buildings of five to six streys and along a main road with dense traffic. The outdoor spaces should be a place of social convergence, a place of exchange, relaxation, used for various group activities. These areas must be accessible to all, open to the public, but space would ensure the safety of children from the road.
