Allschwil Secondary School

The project preserves the three-story wing of the Breiti school complex designed by Rasser and Vadi (1969) and refurbishes it for a new cycle of use. This preserves its value and embodied energy. The guiding principle is the economical use of resources and location: as in a mosaic, existing parts are renovated, supplemented, and placed in a new context.
