We’re continuing our visit to Switzerland, this time taking a look at our subsidiary Losinger Marazzi’s projects in the north-east of the country. Here are some great photos from 2016:
– Greencity is the flagship project for both Losinger Marazzi and Bouygues Construction. It’s the first sustainable neighbourhood in Switzerland and is 2,000 Watts-certified. Having won two City of Energy Association awards and obtained 2,000 Watts Site certification, it strives to apply the principles of sustainable development, not only in terms of energy efficiency and environmental protection, but also in terms of social diversity and mobility. Losinger Marazzi plans to hand over the new Greencity sustainable neighbourhood in stages, with final handover in 2020. Overall, 731 housing units will be built. More than 300 will be for the private rental market, approximately 200 will be private homes, and 230 will be used for co-op housing. There will also be 55,000 m2 of office space, a hotel, a school, a crèche, and various commercial spaces.
– Ankenbüel is a major project to build housing for the private rental market in the Zumikon municipality, north-east of Zurich. 118 housing units from 2.5 to 5.5 rooms will be built, as well as a 173-space underground car park. The contract marks a successful conclusion to a complex, eight-year development phase.
– The new Lycée Français Marie Curie in Zurich was developed and built by Losinger Marazzi for the LFZ. The project involved building a five-storey building with a surface area of 14,000 m2 to accommodate up to 1,000 students. The building was handed over in autumn of 2016. It includes 50 classrooms, one canteen with a full kitchen, 16 dining halls, one large sports hall, and a primary school.
– The new Limmattal hospital is one of the biggest hospital projects ever undertaken using BIM in Switzerland. The project won a BIM d’Or award in the international category in 2015. The 205,000 m3 building has a 200-bed capacity. It includes eight theatres for operations or minor procedures, and 12 intensive care/observation beds, and 12 outpatient beds. This corresponds to an annual capacity for about 10,000 inpatients and 60,000 outpatients per year.
Central Lille welcomes the 5th edition of the ACE Workshop which brings together world experts in construction of the future. The Construction Chair 4.0, created by Bouygues Construction and Centrale Lille in 2017, will benefit from this event. Interview with Prof. Lafhaj, holder of the chair.
At last, an end to meetingitis and email addiction. This tool facilitates the management of meetings and follow-up in businesses. Bouygues Construction’s new partner is Perfony, a software program that makes everyone’s life easier at work.

To meet the needs of both patients and healthcare workers, each healthcare site must combine reliability with ease of use. This fact is not always taken into account. This is evidenced by the numerous problems pointed out by users relating to space and practical issues. However, whether in care homes or hospitals, the building can be a valuable asset in taking care of the most vulnerable and allowing health professionals to work in the best possible conditions. This is a major challenge that Bouygues Construction wants to address using digitisation.
Work carried out by Axione enabled the spectators at the Euro 2016 Portugal/Austria match to have high performance network coverage at Parc des Princes on 18 June. With the advent of digital, quality GSM coverage has become essential both indoors and in major arenas. The stadium is now equipped with state-of-the-art transmission capabilities via multiple operators.
With the aim of reducing occupational health risks on work sites, improving productivity and producing complex items, 3D printing, while still in its experimental stage, is taking the building sector into an industrialisation process that will result in some exceptional achievements. Technology to serve US, not vice-versa.
Given the backdrop of depleting resources such as sand and the saturation of landfills in Île-de-France, and due to the volumes excavated for this work, the idea of reusing the land excavated for new construction was very appealing.
Bouygues Construction is inaugurating its demo for Wizom Connected, the group's smart and connected accommodation offer. The demo, which is open to both employees and clients, features full-sized examples of the equipment included in the comprehensive digital offer.
