Carve imagined a small, vibrant village that is scaled down to a child’s size, designed to spark curiosity in both young and adults. From the outset, our team took a multi-age approach to the design, resulting in a one-of-a kind play village built from clusters of hexagonal plateaus and towers, where kids can explore and move from one tower to the next in a winding maze.

The layout of paseo de St Joan as an important 50m boulevard was first laid down by Ildefons Cerdà in his Ensanche project, approved in 1859.

The much-discussed town hall square at the centre of Meilen was realised in the course of an extension of the town hall and construction of an underground car park. Formerly a large, functional yet unattractive parking lot occupied the area between the buildings comprised of the town hall, building authority, and ZKB and UBS banks.
Between the dominant urban spaces of Europaalle and Lagerstrasse, there is a courtyard that discreetly blends into the fabric of the public spaces of the new city district. Alleyways cut through the compact block and intertwine with the stone carpets that lead out to the surrounding boulevards. Sweeping archway entrances lead into the courtyard and act as gates between two worlds with completely different mechanics.
The design showcases the existing heritage trees and creates a vibrant urban open space that celebrates the rich history of the site while projecting forward an image of environmental innovation, design excellence and social equity. The design focuses on a careful mix of art, technology and lifestyle that places a huge emphasis on creating “outdoor rooms” that bind the adjacent developments together in a seamless, unified way.
