Tanzwerk houses the kinesthetic program of Switzerland’s largest dance school, dividing the space into 12 dance studios, a large performance auditorium and workrooms with various service areas

The new six room construction comprises of an attic level, two main floors and an underground garage. Its formal architectural vocabulary is clear, authentic and unadorned

Our proposal reenvisions the 1950s church by lightly separating the nave and better linking the building to the parish complex

The objective of this competition was to transform an existing industrial hall, turning it into an inspiring training hub for knowledge sharing for an international company

To accommodate creative professionals, Spillmann Echsle's strategy for this adaptive re-use of the warehouse into an office and studio framework named Creative Hub considerably repairs the existing spaces by stripping away double floors, suspended ceilings, and partition walls

The characteristic urban morphology of the Heuried residential district was established in the 1940s post-war building boom, when perimeter developments transitioned to housing blocks, providing park-like residential settings. The intervention's typology embodies an essentially linear design

spillmann echsle’s refurbishment of a former production facility prioritizes horizontal and vertical flexibility to accommodate various use cases, where the ease of installation and de-installation of the floor and partitioning elements is paramount

Freitag Flagship Store, 2006

• A standardised 20-foot shipping container is transformed into a building block for an architectural intervention: A stepped tower rises 9 units up from a 5 x 2-unit base
• The renovation of a home from the 1950s offers a lesson in spatial economy
• Roots, the vegan restaurant which also serves as the canteen for On Running’s team, is housed on the first floor of the Atmos high-rise building in Zurich West, home to 17 floors of On's offices

As part of a competition entry, we developed an urban volume that integrates seamlessly into the open, permeable block structure of the neighborhood. A clear tripartite composition – robust base, articulated piano nobile, and recessed attic – anchors the building in its urban context. Loggias, volumetric setbacks, and a finely tuned facade enhance daylight, natural ventilation, and microclimatic performance – with a focus on sustainability and long-term residential quality

Featuring production facilities and design studios, as well as logistics and administration, the Freitag Factory accommodates over 120 employees across 10'000 square meters

Through this intervention, the main building, the ancillary building, and the new basement are merged into one unit, while at the same time, the independent expression of the individual parts is strengthened

This interior fit-out for On reflects the architectural logic of the building as a whole and forms a spatial link between the two different worlds of product development housed within: the “lab”, which occupies the structure’s four-storey base, and the “neighbourhoods” above, where marketing, logistics, and sales activities take place

The House of Switzerland is a mobile building that serves a diplomatic function representing Switzerland’s prfessional sporting interests, traveling to various international locations. Its wooden construction merges traditional carpentry and state of the art timber engineering

Militärkaserne Zürich, 2020⁠–⁠2026

• The proposal converts the old Zurich military barracks into an education centre, open to public use on the ground level and developing around a new atrium space
• The historic ABB halls in Oerlikon prevail as significant architectural testaments to Zurich's industrial past. Following a revision of updated building regulations, these halls are now permanently preserved
• A concert hall constructed from simple and inexpensive spruce wood was inserted as a wooden box in a former production hall. In the intermediate area outside the wooden vessel and within the industrial building’s walls, visitors see the raw and honest character of the elementary wooden construction
• Replacement building within an open urban fabric
