The renovation project of the FTI foundation?s headquarters is set in the heart of Geneva's industrial urban fabric. It was undertaken following two primary objectives: on one hand, the need to activate a collaborative culture amongst the different departments, based on a transversal project dynamic, and on the other hand the need to propose a renewed and coherent client experience in line with the foundation's values. The users were included in a participatory co-design process from the start, helping to shape a common vision and to create an optimal user experience.
