Competition – 4th Prize
Gradually, the North jetty extends into the water. From the shore to the breakwater, the vegetation fades. Little by little, stone gives way to water, green to air. Toward evanescence.
A new vertical presence in the harbor, the lighthouse reveals its finesse—by day and by night. In all weather, it stands in perfect balance: a clear gesture, subtly eloquent.
Hidden among the rocks of the breakwater, the starting cabin emerges in summer, during the great Lémanic regattas. It forms the base—unapologetically efficient. Transparency as a continuation of the barrier. A strong presence, light in form.
Through both its ingenuity and the materials that compose it, the lighthouse winks with Swiss high-tech maritime expertise. Of air and wind, but also of craftsmanship and innovation. Of boldness. It expresses an inventive engineering where aesthetics meet efficiency. It rises at the very intersection of precision and creativity. All in discretion… quintessentially Swiss.
