SAX Rehabilitation Center / BW Arch

This facility, a residential, occupational, and healthcare center for persons with psychological, somatic, or social issues or issues arising from addiction, aims to offer its clients a contained, structured environment while they prepare for their reintegration into the community. Located amongst the orchards in the Rhone valley, halfway between the villages of Saxon and Charrat, the new facility is anchored in the rural structure of the locality. The way the orchards, fields, and vineyards are arranged dictated the design of the building and its surroundings. The building is incorporated within this orthogonal logic.
