12 photo: Nazar Leskiw photo: Nazar Leskiw The Picassohaus Brunngässlein Basel The building site is prominently located on Picassoplatz This is a corner lot with, for the most part, six-story building in perimeter block development Distinctive buildings, among them the art museum and the Baloise Insurance Company's free-standing headquarters, are its next-door neighbours The proportioning of the building and the arrangement of each single part is based on a modular systemthe ground floor contains conference rooms and offices as well as access to the underground parking garage The upper floors are reached via a prominent staircase Location of and accessibility to service spaces are organized around a type of core, allowing entry from both sides Single-space offices as well as large open ones are thus possible The high spaces of the 'attic story' are used for conferences, employee's break, and offices The building's facade is rather elegant in dark gray steel photo: Nazar Leskiw Peter Märkli UBS Property Fund Roderick Tram 8 to Aeschenplatz, short walk from there 12

13 photo: Jeroen Meijer photo: Jeroen Meijer Vitra Headquarters Klünenfeldstraße Basel photo: Jeroen Meijer The existing zoning required a building of less than ten meters in height Parking was required at a rate of one car for every three employees on site, including existing uses The building is to house various working groups which require "changeable" office planning in a way which will allow them to demonstrate and experiment with their own furniture lines The offices also become showrooms, so a relatively neutral space was designed for this program element Much research was done to investigate state-of-the-art office space before the project began As a result, "combi office" and "office landscape" types will be accommodated as well as more traditional closed and open offices The strict energy codes of mandate that there be no air-conditioning for offices, so natural ventilation is accommodated by opening windows and the entirely shaded south wall under the large wing shaped canopy Project is public!

14 photo: Nazar Leskiw photo: Maarten Helle St Jakob Turm Birsstrasse 320 CH-4052 Basel The landmark of the new St Jakob Park is naturally the St Jakob Tower Like a city gate, above all it represents a distinctive entrance to Basel from the motorway The tower is particularly noticeable because of its special shape, which appears different from each of the four points of the compass The crystalline glass body was created by the renowned architect s office Herzog & de Meuron The St Jakob Tower also houses 37 exclusive offices and business premises The roomhigh panoramic windows and recessed balconies are largely south-facing and offer fantastic views Floor area/size m² HelleBeelden photo: Maarten Helle 14

16 photo: Nazar Leskiw photo: Nazar Leskiw Museum der Kulturen Münsterplatz Basel Museum of Ethnology, located right in the heart of Basel's old town, has been renovated and extended so as to include new exhibition space on the top of an already existing building This addition is crowned by an impressive, irregularly folded, roof clad in dark green ceramic tiles (concave, convex and flat) Cantilevered from the rest of the building, the new structure provides support for specially devised plant holders that create a curtain of hanging greenery Access to the museum is through a courtyard that descends gently toward the reception area An open staircase leads to three refurbished exhibition floors and culminates in the column-free space of the new roof addition Project is public!

18 photo: Naomi Schiphorst photo: Naomi Schiphorst Schaulager Ruchfeldstrasse 19 CH-4142 Basel photo: Naomi Schiphorst The Schaulager ('viewing warehouse') is neither museum nor traditional warehouse It keeps the Emanuel Hoffmann collection in optimal condition and is primarily accessible for specialists: conservators, curators, researchers etc The heavy outer wall is built up in layers and its outer surface scratched, exposing the pebbles excavated on site This material is not only a visual expression of weight and storage but also, as a result of its great inertia, an essential factor in the interior climate control On one side the box is somewhat indented, creating a forecourt, so that the entrance side is visible from great distance It appears to be guarded by a small building with a gabled roof The courtyard-like space radiates urbanism and publicness Schaulager is thus not simply an anonymous box on the urban periphery, but rather a place that is active and self-confident, expanding the public dimension of the city of Basel to the south, towards the new district of Dreispitz/Münchenstein Floor area/size m² Emanuel Hoffmann Foundation Laurenz Foundation MI_MOA The building is ONLY OPEN for the public during exhibitions!
