Overview
LargeNetwork is a Swiss media agency and custom-publishing company that grew out of the online magazine Largeur.com, launched in 1999. Rather than operating primarily as a conventional consumer magazine publisher, the company combines journalism, editorial production, graphic design, digital publishing, and communications strategy for media organizations, companies, universities, public institutions, and other organizations. The agency developed in two complementary directions. First, it supplied original editorial material to established Swiss media outlets, including L'Hebdo, the Tribune de Genève, and PME Magazine. Second, it created commissioned publications and related communications for institutional and commercial clients. These projects included magazines, books, websites, guides, and recurring editorial formats. The combination positioned LargeNetwork between a newsroom, a design studio, and a corporate-communications agency. LargeNetwork's custom-publishing work expanded notably from 2003 onward. Its portfolio included publications for higher-education institutions, financial-services companies, broadcasters, hospitals, and public-transport organizations. The agency's projects were often multilingual and designed for audiences beyond a single local market. Examples include French- and English-language academic and medical magazines, as well as French-, German-, and English-language financial and technology publications. The company also developed expertise in information strategy and design: structuring complex subject matter, identifying audiences, creating editorial identities, and translating institutional or technical content into accessible print and digital formats. This approach is visible in publications such as Reflex for École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, Swissquote for the online bank Swissquote, Hémisphères for the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland, In vivo for the University Hospital of Lausanne, and Technologist, a multilingual technology magazine produced for a group of European technical universities. LargeNetwork has also worked on public-facing editorial communications. Since 2009, it has produced Le Renard sur la Lune, an annual guide to Geneva for the city's public-transport consortium Unireso. Geneva Public Transport later adopted the guide's visual language for its own communications. In 2010, the agency began producing Aujourd'hui, a daily page for Tribune de Genève aimed at active urban readers and presenting weekday ideas for activities. Recognition has come from Swiss and European design and publishing competitions. Projects associated with LargeNetwork received awards including the 2010 Grand prix romand de la création for graphic design and photography, the 2010 Best of Corporate Publishing award for Swissquote, the 2011 Chuard Prize for journalist Geneviève Ruiz, and a 2012 European Design Award gold medal for Hémisphères.

History
LargeNetwork originated with the online magazine Largeur.com, launched in 1999. The founders subsequently developed the project into a broader media agency and custom publisher. The resulting business served both media companies seeking editorial material and organizations commissioning publications or digital communications. The agency's early work included original journalism for Swiss outlets such as L'Hebdo, the Tribune de Genève, and PME Magazine. From 2003, it increasingly produced magazines in collaboration with companies and institutions. Its work combined reporting and editing with publication planning, design, and the presentation of specialized information. LargeNetwork's client work covered education, finance, healthcare, broadcasting, technology, and public transport. Its projects included Reflex for École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne from 2006; On Air for World Radio Switzerland from 2009; Swissquote magazine from 2010; Hémisphères for the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland from 2011; In vivo for the University Hospital of Lausanne from 2013; and Technologist from 2014. These publications were issued in multiple languages, reflecting the linguistic and institutional diversity of Switzerland and the international reach of several client organizations. The agency's public-information work included Le Renard sur la Lune, an annual guide to Geneva produced for Unireso from 2009. Geneva Public Transport later used the guide's visual identity in its own communications. In 2010, LargeNetwork also began producing Aujourd'hui, a daily page for Tribune de Genève focused on practical ideas and activities for urban readers. The company received recognition in Swiss, corporate-publishing, journalism, and European design competitions. Its work for On Air and Le Renard sur la Lune received distinctions at the 2010 Grand prix romand de la création. Swissquote magazine was named best financial magazine at the 2010 Best of Corporate Publishing Awards. Journalist Geneviève Ruiz received the 2011 Chuard Prize, and Hémisphères won a gold medal in the magazine category at the 2012 European Design Award.
