La Vufflantine Nursery
by Kunik de Morsier Architectes

Kunik de Morsier Architectes has designed the La Vufflantine Nursery in Vufflens-le-Chateau, Switzerland.

This project’s site constraints led to flexible geometry, which in turn led to the design of a complex structure for the nursey.

To keep the site non-artificial, it was decided to elevate part of the existing school rather than build on the surrounding open land.

“The La Vufflantine Nursery is a project for the intensification of a school site,” said Kunik de Morsier Architectes.

All the timber for this structure was sourced from local forests, anchoring this elevation in a local materials history and reducing the building’s carbon impact.

This project has been longlisted in the education project category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
