Geographically centrally located, as well as from <strong>the</strong> standpoint of infrastructure, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Flon</strong> district lends itself<br />

as a meeting point for many different user groups, and has naturally developed its own interior “zones” of<br />

activity, perhaps not so openly observed.<br />

The sou<strong>the</strong>rn most side of <strong>Flon</strong>, along <strong>the</strong> street Côtes de Montbenon, shows all <strong>the</strong> characteristics of <strong>the</strong><br />

“living” subculture of <strong>Flon</strong>, and has a strong connection between <strong>the</strong> youth and <strong>the</strong> city. It functions as ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

entry to <strong>the</strong> area, from <strong>the</strong> “Vigie” metro station, <strong>the</strong> Eracom school and <strong>the</strong> Lausanne Jazz School, all<br />

which deal directly with <strong>the</strong> area youth. It is within this context that we propose to situate our program of a<br />

<strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Embassy</strong>.<br />
