Quartier D'habitations les Terailles, Cossonay-Ville

Short description

The "Les Terrailles" settlement is located in the upper part of Cossonay, a medium-sized municipality between Lausanne and Yverdon-les-Bains in the heart of the canton of Vaud. The hamlet's current appearance is the result of a neighborhood plan drawn up in the early 1990s.

The project

Each building has its own footprint and its own number of full, partial or basement storeys. However, the common concept is evident in both the structural choices and the architectural expression. While the reinforced concrete and masonry structure is classic for this type of building project, the constructive quality culminates in the building envelope, which consists of a double wall of bricks clad with a "rustic" plaster.

Services in detail

The program defines 25 high-quality apartments at moderate rents. Divided into three units, four 21/2-room apartments, ten 3-room apartments and eleven 4-room apartments with a total gross floor area of 2,765^m2 are planned. The total SIA volume of 13,025^m3 provides for the creation of an underground garage to unify the whole. The available plot is 4,433^m2.
