Gex

Gex (the place) is a small town just outside Geneva, Switzerland. It is a town surrounded by mountains and stunning nature but also very much an urban place. It is inhabited by farmers whose families have cultivated the mountain meadows for centuries and by newly arrived expatriates from all countries. It is a town of contrast: countryside and urban landscape; expat and local not to mention the border between countries that people cross every day to go to work. The contrasts and the scenery of Gex were the inspiration for this design.
