MODULØR, Issue No. 2/2022 - In the Zurich Oberland, the new headquarters of the Swiss electrical company Hustech Installations AG stands out from the broad mass of the industrial area - striking and representative at the same time. This is because, in keeping with the company's innovative philosophy, Rüegg Architekten, together with BGS + Partner Architekten, both from Rapperswil, have implemented a new building that, above all, draws attention to itself from afar in terms of design. Accordingly, in addition to the self-confident design, the new company headquarters including workshop embodies in particular the forward-looking and sustainable spirit of the client as well as their striving for a pleasant working environment.
