Your project in the canton of Geneva
For a project in Geneva, give the municipality and postcode, the rooms or building elements involved and the outcome you want. Describe the actual access: floor, lift, vehicle approach, parking and space for deliveries. Say whether the home or business premises will remain in use during the work. In a rented property or condominium, identify which areas are private and which are shared, and who coordinates decisions about them. If the project changes the exterior or concerns a protected building, check the applicable requirements with the competent authority before starting. Photos, existing plans and any approval documents already available help define the work without assumptions about a neighbourhood’s buildings.
- In a rental building or condominium, say whether the property management company or the co-owners have already given their agreement.
- For a flat in town, give the floor, whether there is a lift and what parking is available.
- For a villa in the Geneva countryside, describe access to the garden if machinery needs to get in.
Architecture projects in the canton of Geneva
In Geneva, the dense urban fabric, nineteenth-century apartment buildings and villa districts call for precise projects. In the city, the architect is brought in to join two flats, open a kitchen onto the living room or convert a loft, often in buildings run by a property management company or held in condominium ownership. In Cologny, lakeside houses call for careful thought about views, privacy and gardens. In Carouge, the Sardinian-era character of the façades and inner courtyards guides the transformations. Coordination with neighbours, the property management company and contractors is part of the job. Before launching your Geneva project, the municipality will explain the steps specific to your address.
- When joining flats, have the position of load-bearing walls and service ducts checked before approving the plan.
- In a Geneva villa, study the orientation of the terraces with the architect to enjoy the lake without losing privacy.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose an architect in Geneva?
Look at the architect's previous projects and check that they have experience with similar work. Meet them to see if you share the same vision and communicate well. Ask what the assignment covers, from design to site supervision.
How do I distinguish an architectural study from full project supervision?
A feasibility study, permit documentation, tendering and site supervision are different stages. Explain which decisions you need help with and ask for the deliverables at each stage. The assignment should state who coordinates specialist studies and how later construction work is followed.
What should I compare in architect quotes?
Compare assignment stages, drawings, specialist coordination and site follow-up against the same brief. Ask which procedures apply to the project and who handles them. Agree how revisions and approvals are documented, without assuming a standard permit duration across different municipalities and projects.
How should I prepare for the architect visit or work?
Collect property plans, available surveys and information about known constraints. List intended use, retained features and your priorities. Arrange access for the initial visit and share sensitive property documents privately, so the feasibility study begins with the relevant facts.
