Digital European HeadQuarter
Geneva, Switzerland

program office planning and interior design of offices and facilities(including auditorium, training centre, customer centre, technology show and cafeteria)

size sqm 22.160

status completed 1993

The functional brief given by the client was rich of different functions related not only to employees facilities but also to an important and almost continuative function of client centre / technology show.
This openness to exterior world lead to the conception of the ground floor as a space really open to the city, with large allowance to people to come in and have a coffee at the cafeteria, to look at an exhibition going on in the conference centre, to visit the technology show while the normal daily life of the headquarter is going on.
