Located in the center of Geneva, "La Plaine de Plainpalais" is a vast esplanade in a rhomboid shape, between the Arve and the Rhône, the two rivers of the city. On August 1, the second phase of the renovation of this large public space was inaugurated, designed by the Swiss architect Carlos López and now equipped with new children's play areas, one of the most important and extensive skateparks in Europe, petanque areas and the new kiosks.

It is a wide multipurpose space in which multiple activities are carried out, several weekly public markets are mounted, fairs, circuses and any other type of manifestations. To support this complex place, which varies considerably according to the time of day and the time of year, several areas of prefabricated kiosks with services for users have been planned.

Six new modules have been installed, grouped into 3 areas, from the Spanish urban equipment company Microarquitectura. Two of these areas function as a bar and the third serves the markets, the maintenance brigade and the users of the skatepark, which have a meeting room, a workshop and a support space for their activity. The three clusters of kiosks are equipped with public toilets adapted for people with physical disabilities. The model chosen is the Havana Microarquitectura kiosk, which had already been installed previously in the city of Geneva, in an urban intervention on the banks of Lac Lemàn.

To achieve a certain homogeneity of the set, a similar image has been chosen for the three kiosk areas. The material of the outer skin is aluminum sheet with undulations in horizontal direction. The intention is that both its color and brightness as well as its texture contribute to integrating the modules into the environment without having too much presence. The interiors are finished with hpl plates of different colors, depending on the use of the kiosks.

The combinations of the modules have interstitial spaces, which facilitate internal circulations and, in turn, generate more protected areas and accesses with greater privacy (as in the case of the entrances to the toilets)

The shaded areas are produced by Havana pergolas made of galvanized steel structure with grilles of autoclaved pine wood. All the elements of the set are highly resistant to weathering and possible vandalism.

Both the kiosks and the pergolas, are prefabricated and have been transported from Spain already assembled and, once in the site, have been combined with each other, considerably reducing the time of installation and labor needed on site.
