Garden of 5 Senses

Awaken your senses and connect with nature.

A garden of 5 senses

Covering an area of 6,000 m², the Hub's green roof is a hub of exchange, therapy and well-being. Open to all Genolier Campus stakeholders and visitors alike, the roof terrace has been designed around the five senses: sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch, placing the human being at the heart of its concerns.

Awakening the senses

Belvedere garden: Situated at the tip of the roof terrace, with a panoramic view of the lake, the Alps and Mont Blanc, this garden invites contemplation and escape to reconnect with oneself and one's creativity.

Touch Garden: The fruit of collaboration between our landscape designer and the oncology team at the Clinique de Genolier, the Touch Garden offers patients with diminished sensitivity following chemotherapy the opportunity to improve their sense of touch and reconnect with tactile experiences, thanks to a carefully chosen selection of plants.

Fragrance Garden: A selection of fragrant plants, native tree essences and carefully chosen scents awaken the olfactory...

Garden of sounds: Within this space a carefully crafted selection of sound plants and trees has been created to offer a unique auditory experience and create a regenerating ambience for Hub companies, visitors and patients alike.

Garden of taste: Because the way we eat is crucial to our health, the Hub's roof will host a vegetable garden where our restaurant's chef will be able to grow aromatic plants and seasonal vegetables to offer tasty local cuisine.

In symbiosis with nature

The Genolier Innovation Hub is in complete harmony with its environment and landscape. Its flat roof, planted withindigenous trees and plants, makes the building structure almost invisible from the sky, like an anthill whose activity and emulation remain underground...

This perfect integration is the result of an in-depth study of plant life, the landscape and its relief, carried out at the outset of the project to preserve the integrity of the region's soils and soils.

Omnipresent light

The Hub's green roof is punctuated by nine light-filled patios,each measuring 64m2 , providing indirect natural light throughout the Hub and establishing a close connection between the surrounding nature and the building's interior. Several skylights are planted with native trees and plants, bringing nature to the heart of the building.
