This ambitious project reflects the rigor and excellence that have shaped the reputation of the EHL throughout the world. The EHL has approximately 4,000 students enrolled on its three campuses in Switzerland and Singapore. Three new buildings – residential, sports, and leisure facilities – now complete the new campus situated on the heights of 
Lausanne (Switzerland).

The farm at the heart of the campus. As veritable masterpiece of collective memory, the farm is symbolically located just above the reception and remains a visual reference point throughout the entire site.

A connected campus. Behind the farm, a huge glass srtucture hosts the main stairs of the campus and creates a bridge between existing and new buildings accommodation. The project links all the campus buildings by a creating a «connector», a kind of platform that hosts the interior circulation system and sports activities. Above, the buildings are implanted in organically way in a vegetalized space.

A transparent pedagogy. The architectural project expresses the desire to show and display all the activities linked to hotel operations for teaching purposes. This transparency is also reflected in the glass used for the communal spaces around the cloiste. It offers views which criss-cross between the lower and upper campus and the multiple overhead openings in the green roof of the connector emphasize the feeling of transparency.

This new campus aims at being a working tool for research in the hospitality sectors. The project takes part in the EHL pedagogy concept of role playing of the students. It offers rooms for culinary and tableware demonstrations, floral arrangements and wine tasting.
