2025 - Third prize
Châtel-Saint-Denis, Switzerland
The new triple sports hall and swimming center in Châtel-St-Denis is conceived as a compact, horizontally organized public building, carefully embedded in the natural slope of the site.
The program is organized over two main levels: the sports hall on the upper level, connected to the public esplanade, and the swimming hall set lower in the terrain linked to its outdoor swimming basin. This organization enables clear and intuitive circulation without complex vertical distribution, favoring horizontal movement and visual continuity. At the core of the building, a central gallery creates a visual connection between the swimming center and the sports hall, opening views onto the full spectrum of activities.
Project in collaboration with Raphael Kadid and Apostolopoulos Tasoulis. Structure Bollinger Grohmann, Fire Safety Quantum Brandschutz.
