Homes designed for different ways of living
From studios to family homes, Valais 7 offers a range of apartment types to suit everyone's needs.
1.5 to 5 rooms
A varied offer, suited as much to a single person as to a family.
Natural light
The orientations and large openings bring light deep into the homes.
An outdoor space
Most apartments have a balcony, and some layouts enjoy a dual aspect.
Interiors made to last
The apartments favour simple, robust materials that are pleasant to live with.
Oak parquet in the living spaces, porcelain stoneware in the kitchens and bathrooms, high-performance windows and understated finishes make interiors that are easy to live in and to maintain.
The city from your home
Balconies and terraces extend the living rooms outdoors.
Some dual-aspect apartments enjoy several orientations, with views that open, depending on the floor, onto the lake, the Alps, the station or the city.
All of Geneva close by
Valais 7 enjoys a prime location in the heart of Geneva, between Pâquis, Sécheron, Cornavin and the shores of Lake Geneva. Schools, shops, restaurants, services and public transport are right on the doorstep, while the parks and the lakeside offer a calmer setting just a few minutes away.

- A central address, close to the lake and Cornavin
- A renovated building with a high-performance envelope and efficient systems
A completely rethought building
Valais 7 occupies a former 1960s office building whose structure has been kept and then thoroughly transformed.
A new envelope, two added storeys, balconies, triple glazing, a heat pump and solar installations give the building a new life.

A project designed down to the last detail
Valais 7 is based on a complete transformation of the existing building, combining quality of use, sustainable materials, energy performance and attention to the comfort of its future occupants. Every intervention has been designed to adapt the building to new uses while enhancing its structure and identity.
The homes and active lofts offer varied layouts, suited both to living and to hybrid uses.
The orientations and the arrangement of the spaces bring in generous natural light while preserving privacy in a dense urban setting.
Some homes also have balconies or terraces that extend the indoor spaces and add to everyday quality of life.
The volumes are designed to stay open, functional and adaptable to the project's different uses.
Inside, the materials have been chosen for their durability, simplicity and quality of use, with particular attention to their longevity and ease of maintenance.
- Oak parquet Used in the living spaces and homes, it brings warmth and continuity while being compatible with underfloor heating.
- Porcelain stoneware Used in the kitchens and bathrooms for its robustness and ease of maintenance.
- Carefully finished paints & plasters Contemporary finishes on the walls and ceilings complete the project's interior identity.
The façades combine several construction solutions, designed both for thermal performance and for the building's new architectural expression.
They include in particular:
- a prefabricated timber frame;
- wood-fibre insulation;
- ventilated fibre-cement cladding;
- powder-coated aluminium elements;
- carefully crafted metal details.
Triple-glazed wood-aluminium windows contribute to thermal and acoustic comfort.
External solar shading completes the system to better control solar gain.
Balconies, terraces and access ways are designed as true extensions of the indoor spaces.
They open the homes further onto their surroundings while taking account of the site's constraints: urban density, neighbours and infrastructure.
Occasional landscaping, including planters and green areas, also helps improve the immediate surroundings.
The project includes several technical solutions to improve the building's energy efficiency while ensuring the comfort of its users.
- Green roofs Extensive roofs that encourage biodiversity and help retain rainwater.
- Solar thermal & photovoltaics Installations contributing to the building's energy production.
- Reversible heat pump A system providing both heating and cooling for the spaces.
