The impressive "Trèfle blanc" project for the Tréfle Blanc ice rink was designed by architects from the renowned Chabanne agency in Lyon. With its modern architecture, sustainable materials and emphasis on respect for the environment, this ice rink promises a unique and fascinating experience for visitors and sports fans alike.
The Tréfle Blanc ice rink was selected as an outstanding project in the international architecture competition. Chabanne architects worked on this ambitious project in collaboration with partners such as Architech SA, WSP-BG Ingénieurs Conseils, Ingeni, Oxalis and RR-A.
The “Tréfle Blanc” project comprises a multitude of attractions, including a main rink with seating for over 8,600, an additional ice rink and extensive VIP, catering and exhibition areas, covering a total surface area of 2,700 m². The design of the outdoor spaces and surrounding areas has also been carefully planned to ensure seamless integration.
Particular attention has been paid to the aesthetics of the building, including the sculptural facades that emphasise the dynamic volume of the construction. The architecture of the project also reflects the identity of the Geneva-Servette Hockey Club, which has been symbolically included as the club of the Nid des Aigles.
Sustainability also plays a crucial role. The project relies on the use of environmentally-friendly materials, such as wood, which is used not only for the construction of the main rink, but also for the frames of the ice rinks. In addition, energy is generated from renewable sources, such as the use of ground energy and photovoltaic panels, to cover a large part of the project’s energy needs.
The project has also been enriched by the integration of green spaces and 150 planted trees, which not only improve the atmosphere, but also contribute to the promotion of biodiversity and the creation of pleasant public spaces around the rink.
With “Trèfle blanc”, the architects at Chabanne have set an impressive milestone in the world of ice rinks, offering an exceptional experience for sportspeople and visitors alike.
