Project description Quartier de l'Etang (pdf, 1.04 MB)

The project is part of the development of a new district in Geneva, the largest private real estate project in Switzerland. This real estate project covers 11 hectares and provides for the construction of 280,000 m2 of gross floor area on 26 buildings.

Ductal® Cladding solution was used to protect the external thermal insulation and give the building a mineral elegance.

With large lightweight panels, the architect was able to manage a floor height without joints placing the panels vertically.

Ductal® helped to respect the construction planning thanks to the quick time installation of the panels made possible by the low number of fixing points per panel.
