The project consists of a two levels wooden building, which forms an ‘ensemble’ with two existing buildings; the school and the main municipal,’s administration building. On the first floor, we find an extension for the municipal’s administration (social services), on the ground floor the library and the game library for kids.
The first phase of the detailed project was spread from 2011 to 2013, followed by the realization and the end of works in autumn 2014.
The new building as part of the ensemble of public buildings defines, with its geometry, the surrounding space: in the eastern side, the park with its exotic trees maintains a clear spatial framework, while on the western side a sufficient distance is maintain between the residential neighbourhood area and the public buildings. In the North, it joins at the foot of the hill of the vineyards of Spiez.
The building’s exterior aspects, clearly affirms itself as a public building in several ways:
The wooden facades, exempt of any iconographic element, which can express a use, present a rhythm which gives a unity to the volume. They provoke a certain monumentalization but also a calmness which confers to the building a modest presence. The envelope reminds of a book’s structure on shelves. The wooden building integrates the ancient local tradition, without imitating the forms.
