Clinique La Source
2007 - 2009 · Suisse, Lausanne · Public » Health
The contest required to give a new image to the Private clinic by renewing its facade, but the occasion made it possible to go beyond from a simple aesthetic intervention. Thermal qualities were to be updated and the phonic capacities could also be largely improved. It was important also to transmit a more harmonious image of the unit, from which the various parts would be more clearly reunified. Finally, the reflexion on the scale to be given to this new frontage was important, considering its visibility since bottom of the Avenue of Beaulieu like directly since the Vinet Avenue. To start, all the windows which did not have yet a glazing insulating were replaced, then the full parts were covered with a new layer of insulation (14 cm of mineral wool) in its turn covered with one. To finish, the unit was packed by a layer of transparent protection.
