Since 2002, the Zurich-based architectural practice led by Samuel Gäumann, Eva Lüdi and Martin von der Ropp has designed public buildings with a clear architectural expression, while maintaining a strong connection to the location. For instance the Blumenfeld housing for the aged in Altstätten (2018) reacts sensitively to the varying scales of the surroundings. The wooden structure of the Oberfeld Sports Hall (2019) in Langnau enters into a powerful dialogue with the existing buildings through its finely-structured façade, thereby integrating it in a respectful way.
