YEAR
2021
The new senior-care facility stands in the heart of Monthey, close to the Place Centrale. It combines a nursing home and sheltered apartments. L-shaped on plan, the building occupies the corner where Rue de Venise meets Rue de la Plantaud. The ground floor forms a plinth that fills the entire plot and hosts reception, shared daytime areas and a psychogeriatric unit. A central patio brings natural light into these spaces.
The upper floors contain the medicalised bedrooms, laid out along a central corridor. Lounges are placed at the corner and at the corridor ends, offering views out. A roof terrace atop the plinth provides residents with an outdoor extension.
On the higher levels, the sheltered flats—also reached from a central corridor—face either the street or the courtyard. Thanks to the shallow building depth, each unit is organised around a balcony-loggia that shapes the entrance zone, a bedroom and a living room.
The façades are expressed as a grid of large, repetitive openings. Mullions are set back slightly to emphasise the horizontal spandrel bands, while the chamfered corner and the loggias signal the rental dwellings above. Dark bronze aluminium cladding lends the building a refined, dignified presence. Because of the limited depth stipulated by planning regulations, the façade is built as a timber frame protected by a ventilated skin, braced between concrete floor slabs carried by the party walls between rooms or apartments.
