The evolution of a new way of life on a beautiful river terrace
Located on a river terrace formed by the Gérine River, the Marly Innovation Center (MIC) and the future "Ancienne Papeterie" district in Marly (FR) occupy a site historically devoted to industry. Part of the cantonal center of Fribourg, the challenges of this strategic site include the creation of an urban, sustainable, dense, mixed-use district that is accessible by multimodal mobility.
The first ecological district in the canton of Fribourg to receive WWF One Planet Living certification, the 13.5-hectare site will provide long-term housing for around 2,500 inhabitants and jobs. The first phase of the project will accommodate 800 inhabitants from 2022.
CCHE and Magizan were selected following a parallel study mandate procedure, with a concept proposing a new sustainable way of life in Marly.
The realization of the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the project is ensured through the different phases: from the urban planning with the detailed development plan to the realization of the buildings.

Three complementary strata - a park along the Gérine River, a lively hillside and an urbanized plateau in the form of a built-up archipelago - allow the development of a site of yesteryear that is landlocked. A trio of public spaces ensures the attraction of the other districts of Marly and represents the federating addresses for both the MIC and the housing.
With its three districts with strong identities, the Ancienne Papeterie offers a new place to live for about 2,700 inhabitants and jobs. Throughout the design, planning and implementation process, a steering committee made up of various authorities, representatives of the client and all specialist representatives accompanied the team.
