American University in Switzerland, this new project in Clarens is our second with the university, following a previous campus completed several years ago in La Tour-de-Peilz. Located directly on the lakefront, the space benefits from a prime first-line position by Lake Léman, offering an inspiring natural backdrop for everyday academic life.
The design embraces a contemporary minimalist approach, created to ensure long-term use while providing a clean and functional environment for students and staff.
The exterior concept focuses on unconventional material choices, including galvanised metal elements, recycled plastic, and raw aluminium. These materials give the space a modern character while emphasizing durability and practicality. The result is a simple yet distinctive atmosphere that supports the everyday rhythm and functional needs of the university.
