urbz has worked in developing communication and collective planning systems in Geneva since 2015. Our vision is one of usergenerated cities. We adapt this approach to the local context, in which our projects are deeply embedded. In Geneva, a global city hosting a large number of international organisations, this directly translates into guiding principles of hospitality and collective action.

 

Our work includes a complete makeover for a participatory-based, comprehensive plan of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) headquarters, a new urban development outline within the Nations Quarter neighbourhood to foster the core values of accessibility, community and creativity, and other re-imagining initiatives in Geneva’s parks, streets and vicinities.

 

urbz practice relies on the savoir-faire of an international team with more than a decade of worldwide experience, and a strong network of offices in Mumbai, Bogotá, Goa and Paris.
