Research at the Laboratory of Architecture and Sustainable Technologies (LAST) at EPFL aims to explore the interactions between architectural design and transitions towards sustainability in the built environment. This concerns as much the polycentric rest ...

Since the Industrial Revolution, urban spaces have undergone a profound reorganisation in parallel with a transformation of society and lifestyles. Urban sprawl has become widespread in Switzerland, as in countless countries, due to continuous innovations ...

This paper investigates the theoretical capacity of the Swiss peri-urban dwelling stock to meet energy efficiency requirements through incremental scenarios. The notion of “typical dwelling” allows the assessment of housing energy efficiency at the country ...

Peri-urban neighborhoods of detached houses are facing countless challenges related to the building stock’s low energy efficiency, to the current demographic transition reducing household size and increasing the proportion of elderlies, to their distant lo ...

The paper outlines the theoretical context and preliminary outputs of the investigation on the prospective evolution of existing peri-urban neighborhoods of single-family houses toward lower carbon and more resilient communities, for 2050, in Switzerland. ...

Resulting from the society shift of the post-war period, urban growth and urban sprawl of infrastructure and settlements of individual housing are today at the centre of public policies’ focus, in particular due to their widely criticized environmental imp ...

Current planning policies aim at putting a stop to urban sprawl by favouring densification processes. In this context, future developments are more likely to happen in strategic urban areas than in existing peri-urban neighbourhoods of single-family houses ...

Environmental performance assessment of the built environment tends to focus mostly on operational final energy consumption of buildings located within a specific context. Such a limited scope prevents broader usability of findings in practice. In Switzerl ...

In Switzerland as in most European countries, the last decades of urban development have put much pressure on the environment due to uncontrolled urban sprawl. The existing peripheral residential built-up areas mostly composed of single-family houses are r ...

The notion of urban sprawl is a central topic of discourses about sustainable city. In Switzerland as in most European countries, many single-family houses are still being built in the farthest peripheries of urban agglomerations. Characterized by low dens ...

Inventaire des quartiers rhodaniens Dans le cadre du projet de recherche « Rhodanie urbaine », une partie du travail consiste à recenser, le long du Rhône dans son ensemble, tous les secteurs présentant certaines traces d’urbanisation ; qu’elles soient anc ...

Entre ville et campagne, les périphéries urbaines constituent un défi particulier dans le contexte de la transition. Éloignées de la dynamique de densification en cours dans les espaces centraux, elles représentent néanmoins une part non négligeable de l’e ...

Ce chapitre s’appuie sur les résultats d’une recherche doctorale réalisée dans le cadre du projet Living Peripheries dont l’objet était l’étude du potentiel de renouvellement des quartiers périurbains de maisons individuelles, afin de constituer une aide à ...

Au-delà des profondes mutations spatiales et des importantes transformations sociétales qu’a connues le pays depuis la révolution industrielle, une identité spécifique – qui repose sur la présence de diverses composantes urbaines réparties sur un territoir ...

Malgré un engagement politique en faveur de la densification urbaine, d’innombrables maisons individuelles périurbaines sont construites chaque année en Suisse comme dans la plupart des pays européens, ce que dénoncent la majorité des recherches et lignes ...

Le projet de recherche intitulé Living Peripheries portait sur l'avenir des quartiers résidentiels dans les périphéries urbaines de Suisse romande. En comparant différents scénarios de transformations, cette recherche fait apparaître les constats que, sans ...
