The project is based, at different scales, on the porous duality of a heart and its periphery: beyond the solid forms of the programme, the interstitial voids are shaped to serve as both functional and relational links. Thus, on an urban scale, connections are established between the building and its context: here a forecourt, there a square or a terrace, serving as opportunities for exchanges, and anchoring UniHub as the new hub of the district. And within the building, between four cores that punctuate its boundaries, the occupation of the core varies according to the permeability required on each floor. The demarcation is porous, between programme and empty spaces, with places for exchanges, or meetings, or even retreats, which will make UniHub the theatre of new constellations. Because studying is a collective affair.

Cover page

Geneva is unique in Switzerland for the high quality and diversity of its urban fabric, shaped by centuries of rapid expansion and high-density development. Since the 16th century, the city has faced recurring challenges, including housing shortages, sustained growth, and limited territory, responding with inventive and context-specific solutions. These historical approaches to urban constraints offer valuable insights, enriching debates on housing production and giving Geneva a distinct architectural identity.

The residential buildings along Avenue Alfred-Bertrand, designed by Léon Bovy and Bovy & Reverdin, exemplify Geneva’s early 20th-century urban expansion, blending classical, Heimatstil, and modernist influences. Their design integrates open block layouts and squares, reflecting the hygienist debates of the era while merging historical and contemporary expressions.
