Renovation Geneva Housing Estate

The addition reinterprets the character of the existing buildings and the neighborhood without losing their unique features. It appears neither as a contemporary part of the existing structure nor as a completely independent building. Connecting balcony towers interweave old and new, creating a visual and functional symbiosis.
