Urbanité Hybride / Hybrid Urbanity: Entre Forme Urbaine Traditionnelle Et Transition Écologique / Be

(English / French)
Countering the phenomenon of sprawl in the
often anonymous or chaotic urban periphery, the Oassis neighborhood in
Lausanne takes a unique approach based on urbanity and hybridization.
Located on a former industrial wasteland in the west of the city, Oassis
reflects the compositional principles of the traditional city, while
also engaging in the dynamics of ecological transition and climate
resilience. This 'urban fragment' is both an urban fabric, compatible
with future developments in the neighborhood, and an architectural
object characterized by urbanity. The contemporary challenges of
regenerating suburban areas are addressed here through diverse
development programs and a profusion of gardens.
