EPFL ArtLab
Damien Barakat

Uniting arts and technology under one roof.

Located on a vast plot of land within the EPFL campus, the ArtLab building creates a bridge between the heart of the campus to the north and the student residence to the south. This new building, emblematic of the campus, was designed by the Japanese firm Kengo Kuma & Associates, with a long architecture divided into three blocks.

As a local partner, CCHE was in charge of coordinating and negotiating with the local authorities, engineers and various stakeholders, managing and drawing up the construction documents as well as the detailed studies to ensure that the building was executed in the spirit intended by the Japanese architect.
