0170School and Sports Centre Nyon

The new complex houses a primary school, a triple sports hall, and a swimming pool, clearly bordering the Reposoir Park. Its low height and vertical wooden façades give it a pavilion-like character. Three green pathways lead through recessed façade sections to the park and gather the entrances. The different areas—kindergarten, administration, sports—are clearly separated but form a harmonious whole. The primary school classrooms are located on the upper floor with a central library. The sports hall has its own entrance and a covered forecourt that can be used for events. The swimming pool is publicly accessible, featuring ample natural light and barrier-free access.
