Façade with color accent

07/28/2022 | Glas Trösch | Reference

With the Business School and General Culture in Sierre, Bonnard Woeffray Architects set an urban accent: A glass cube, which not only reveals the interior concrete structure, but is also surrounded on the outside on several levels by pleated translucent bands of stainless steel.

Depending on the position of the sun, the orange-glowing floor of the track overpass is reflected in them. The insulating glass SILVERSTAR EN2plus on the façade ensures a good thermal insulation value with high light transmission. This lets plenty of natural daylight into the classrooms, so the energy-intensive use of artificial light is rarely necessary.
