Contemporary architecture in Switzerland is influenced by Peter
Zumthor and Herzog & de Meuron, recipients of the Swiss Pritzker
Prize, as well as a number of other prominent architects. The book
presents 25 buildings in Switzerland designed by 16 influential Swiss
architects: The range covers high-density urban developments through
to rural sites in the alpine environment, with examples of traditional
craftsmanship and materials, and modern construction technology and
engineering. Large-format photographs illustrate the buildings’
proportions, materials, and details. Four authors analyze the Swiss
building culture and its high architectural quality from an
insider’s and an outsider’s point of view. In a detailed
interview, Peter Zumthor explains his approach to architectural
design.
