This new water treatment plant is, by definition, an industrial project. But that’s without taking into account the imagination of the teams at DZ Architectes and their bold work on the façades.
Skilfully superimposed chromatic lines recall the forest cordon that highlights the Mont Salève in perspective.
With a subtle play of woody tones and original geometric layouts, the 3 buildings blend harmoniously into their environment.
