Chilestieg
Rümlang, Switzerland
Striking appearance in lush greenery – The residential development at Chilestieg in Rümlang Switzerland looks like a set of shimmering crystals embedded in lush green surroundings. The planning approach adopted by baumschlager eberle reveals a sensitive response to the structures in the vicinity. The hexagonal layout of the buildings and the façades of galvanized sheet steel give the three multi-family dwellings a striking appearance on a site bounded by mature trees. The three or four-storey dwellings comprise a total of 41 apartments.
