Savioz Fabrizzi Architectes is a Swiss architecture firm based in Sion, founded in 2004 by Laurent Savioz and Claude Fabrizzi. Their approach is grounded in a rigorous awareness of place and history: they analyze each site in its natural or built state to uncover the essential characteristics that can be preserved, enhanced, or reinterpreted. Their designs strive to interweave functionality, context, and cultural resonance into architecture that feels rooted yet contemporary.
The firm’s portfolio is rich in residential renovation, new build homes, and conversions—projects such as Bornet House in Ollon and the Savioz House conversion reflect their care for integrating modern interventions within existing structures and landscapes. Their work is distinguished by material sensitivity, clear spatial logic, and a quiet elegance that respects both heritage and innovation.
LOCATION: Sion, Valais, Switzerland
