New headquarters SBB
Berne Wankdorf,
2014
With two new buildings, the company headquarters of the SBB (Swiss Federal Railway) are currently under construction in the WankdorfCity area of Bern. The construction sites cover around 35,000 m² and are located north of the Bern Wankdorf suburban railway station between the railway tracks and A1 motorway. The project sets a visible marker for the cultural change within the SBB. The building facades are made of coloured, mobile glass louvres that give the building a different appearance depending on the position of the sun.
