Swisscom Business Campus

Based on the notion of the “office of the future”, the Swisscom Business Campus offers an advanced professional working environment in the upcoming district of Zurich West. Aligned to the individual working methods of both employees as well as external business partners the campus houses a variety of individual co-creation zones: the generous, open office plan includes “hot desk” zones, retreat nooks, informal discussion rooms, think tank tech-driven spaces and a relaxation lounge.

The design task of Holzer Kobler Architekturen entailed creating an inspiring atmosphere and devising intelligent solutions for the use of space and functional furniture. At the same time a new comprehensive corporate identity was to be designed and implemented in close cooperation with the client. Enabling interaction between people was a crucial aspects for Swisscom – hence flexible spaces were created which can be used for internal project work and as well as for external meetings and events.

Holzer Kobler Architekturen was established in Zurich in 2004 by Prof. Barbara Holzer and Prof. Tristan Kobler. Today, the studio operates internationally out of Zurich, Berlin, Cologne and Nyon and covers a wide spectrum of competences including urban plann­ing and architecture, scenography and design. A multidisciplinary team made up of architects, designers, graphic artists and curators define its specific orientation in close collaboration with public and private sectors as well as a broad network that encompasses industry, sci­ence, art and culture.
