from Component 1
by Nicole Eke
Geneva, Switzerland
The New Comedies is a place of creative performance, with its large construction workshops. The New Comedies is a place where theater professionals from all walks of life come together to create art. The project places the performance halls at the heart of the building, which allows for a unique cross-section of programs. This gives the building its identity. Public and private circulation spaces surround the programs that they offer access to.

The architecture is discreet and neutral during the day, expressing the character of a place where creativity and production take place. In the evening, a light staging transforms the building into a performance place, affirming its presence in the city and inviting the public to the magic of the show.
