The Swiss municipality of Cham and Cham Group AG, the owner of a nearly 4.5 acre undeveloped site in the north of Cham known as Pavatex Süd, have joined forces to work out plans for the site’s development. What is currently an industrial site is to be developed for a variety of mixed uses including residential, commercial, educational and recreational areas, while also linking the site as seamlessly as possible to the adjacent Papieri site. To this end, we formulated guiding principles and also designed and carried out a participatory study commission.
