Tamedia Office Building

An exposed timber frame gives an office its identity.

The project, in context

Shigeru Ban’s Tamedia building, developed with Jean de Gastines and local delivery partners, opened in Zurich in 2013. Its visible timber structure sits behind a glazed façade, with meeting and circulation spaces facing the Sihl.
