Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the lease was partially void as illicit because basement rooms could not lawfully be used for habitation under Geneva law.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The lease was not illicit or partially void merely because two rooms were in the basement; the cantonal ban was construed narrowly.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 127 LCI did not clearly prohibit any use of basement rooms connected to living space; the term 'habitation' was not shown to cover the leased arrangement in the sense required for nullity under Art. 20 CO.
