Hinterfeld apartment building, Zwingen, 1993–1995
Hinterfeld lies on the Birse Plain and is surrounded by historic workers' houses from the Zwingen paper mill. The surrounding hills offer recreational terrain. Despite this attractive situation, a rental apartment in Zwingen has considerably more to offer than in the city or a larger municipality.
On the basis of an overall plan resulting from a competition (Michael Alder, Basel), the assignment was to design a simple, elongated structure as a rental apartment building.
