Town of Chatel-St-Denis, Switzerland


Located on a steep site at the developing edge of town, this building provides the community with a multi-functional gathering place for cultural, educational and recreational events, public or private. While the construction materials are typical for this alpine region of Switzerland, the shape of the roof takes its clue from the surrounding landscape morphology of rolling foothills. The transparency of the upper part of the building allows a continuum between hill and valley and connects it with the natural surroundings.
