Langgasse Baar

Langgasse Baar

The geometric, cuboid design chosen for the residential and commercial building is broken up by the exterior design: the terracotta elements that have been reduction-fired on a very light biscuit have triangular profiles that change in both colour and appearance depending on the light and the perspective of the observer.
