Sézenove

Breve descrizione

Close to the hamlet of Sézenove, to the south-west of the commune of Bernex, lies a village-style residential area.

Progetto

The buildings constructed in 1975-1976 are located in zone 4B (protected development). They are included in the Plan Localisé de Quartier (PLQ) no. 2664 of 7 November 1973. The rental buildings at chemin de l'Eglise 3-9 and chemin du Moulin 15-29 (12 buildings) belong to the Migros Immobilier Pension Fund. They occupy plot no. 2001, which covers an area of 11,126 m² (above-ground built area of approximately 2,700 m²). Each building comprises a basement, a ground floor, one or two upper floors and attic space, both occupied and unoccupied. The above-ground buildings have different volumetrics. The site as a whole includes an underground garage of around 2,120 m², providing 85 parking spaces with no direct link to the flats. The 76 existing medium-sized flats are comfortable and well-equipped, depending on the layout of the rooms. The basic typology is based on a symmetrical and repetitive concept, offering flats from 2 to 6 rooms. The layout is divided between the kitchen (with dining area) and the living room. The number of bedrooms varies according to the size of the flats. Each flat (except the 2-room units) has a front-facing balcony with access from the living room and kitchen, or one or two roof-top ‘bathtub’ balconies with access from the bedrooms or living room and kitchen. The balconies offer magnificent, unobstructed views of the Salève and the surrounding countryside.
