Venez découvrir la préfiguration architecturale et sociale du Campus RTS, à 2 ans de la pose de sa premiÚre pierre et à 4 ans de son ouverture.
La dimension architecturale de cette nouvelle construction est alimentĂ©e par un grand projet dâentreprise de la RTS. Quâest-ce qui oriente cette architecture ? Comment la RTS rĂ©analyse-t-elle ses modes dâorganisation Ă lâoccasion de sa nouvelle implantation dans un campus universitaire ? Comment deux producteurs et diffuseurs de savoirs, lâuniversitĂ© et les mĂ©dias nationaux, vont-ils cohabiter et collaborer ?
Exposition de la maquette et des plans du projet laurĂ©at du concours dâarchitecture.
Description du projet lauréat du concours (en anglais):
RTS Champ Continu
Bureau d’architecture Kersten Geers David Van Severen, Bruxelles
A field of opportunities, organised by precise production machinery.The new building for the RTS is positioned in the heart of the double campus of EPFL and UNIL. It will function as a âhingeâ between the two campuses, as well as between fields of eduction and research, and between classical broadcasting and contemporary media.The project consists of four separate volumes, supporting a disc-like volume suspended 7 meters above ground.
The volumes include a television studio, a radio studio, a media library and the RTSâs administration, while the suspended volume contains the different redactions and broadcast studios, organised as a âfieldâ of landscape offices. On the ground floor, a glass wall connecting the 4 supporting volumes create a public foyer, connecting the different entrances of the RTS.
The redactions, heart of the production of RTS, are conceived as a field, lighted from above by the industrial-like shed roof. The protruding volumes, the major supporting beams, as well as a system of patioâs organise its contents, creating more or less separate zones within the field. The field is a âchipboardâ, allowing for various and unlimited ways of collaboration between the different redactions, endlessly adaptable to the ever-changing world of media.
