AIT 11.2024 Buildings for health and wellness – outstanding examples of design
Since November 2, young patients, doctors and nursing staff at Zurich Children’s Hospital move into their new rooms in Zurich-Lengg. No less an architectural firm than Herzog & de Meuron took on the building task and implemented it with their usual meticulousness and perfection. One could become envious: Children’s hospitals receive far less attention and investment volume in this country; the new building was worth 760 million francs to the canton of Zurich. We also show medical practices, hospitals, indoor swimming pools and sports halls – all outstanding examples of the magazine’s theme. Our graphic separator pages are a perfect match. They feature three extremely remarkable works by the GDR artist Jürgen Wittdorf (1932-2018), whose estate was recently exhibited for the first time in “West Germany” at the Amann Collection Gallery in Stuttgart. Karl Amann has been running the gallery alongside his office no w here architekten since 2023 and has since demonstrated a subtle, broad-based understanding of art with his exhibition themes. He hosted a private “finissage” to mark the end of Studio Bovti’s exhibition: Inna Strokous studied architecture, Marius Schwald interior design, and together with craftsman friends, they design and build furniture and lights outside the mainstream. You can find their Nougat stool – along with many other products on the theme of the magazine and our product focus on surfaces – in the current issue of AIT 11.2024.
