In the urban context of the underground station area of Lausanne, 2 residential buildings were built. Residents enjoy both urban atmosphere and the nearby city park tranquillity. Generous openings allow those two atmospheres to penetrate inside the centre of the building.

This welcome and friendly meeting place, with Zaric?s masterpieces, contributes to the creation of social links and for membership sensation between neighbours.
