The festival of huts of the sources of lake Annecy

A new way of living in the world, of expanding it.” This festival, which has been in place since 2016, offers a cultural and artistic event in the field of architecture. The territory of the Sources du lac d'Annecy was a precursor in launching this event, which questions visitors and residents alike about the relationship between buildings and their environment.
