ALLSCHWIL, SWITZERLAND – On-site at ALL, a new laboratory building in the Switzerland Innovation Park (SIP). With approximately 21,500 m² of floor space, ALL will bring together flexible workspaces for office and laboratory use. The design combines the sustainability principles and healthy indoor climate of the nearby HORTUS office building with the durability and flexibility of the laboratory building at SIP Main Campus.
The timber façade features continuous bands of angled double-sided photovoltaic panels, covering approximately 50% of the façade area. Their semi-transparent structure creates a changing interplay of light and shadow throughout the day, while the light-coloured textile sunshades reflect sunlight onto the underside of the panels, increasing their energy yield.
