Definition: Wellness Centre Nestlé

The multinational's WellNess Centre combines a cafeteria, sauna and fitness facilities. Its rounded shape blends harmoniously with the Nestlé global headquarters.

Tables with a view of the lake

Nothing has been left to chance in this original cylindrical building, inaugurated in early 2009 and also known as the WellNess Centre. Its architecture was entrusted to the same professionals who oversaw the renovation of the main building in order to ensure continuity. Practical aspects: the irregular roof prevents the sun from shining on the building's large bay windows. The interior layout: raised as it moves away from the windows, each table is positioned to offer a view of the lake. This requirement was all the easier to meet given the building's round shape. Above all, it is the antithesis of the old cafeteria, which was "dark, 1970s in style and without a view of the lake". This is ironic when you consider the idyllic location where the multinational has set up its headquarters...

This is how Mathilde Farine put it in the daily newspaper Le Temps on 27 July 2010.
