Project
AP164.S1.2005.D1
Description:
The project series documents the renovation of the Télévision Suisse Romande (TSR) tower in Geneva, Switzerland. There were two competition finalists: Abalos & Herreros received the second phase of the project which was not realised. The firm identified this project as number 197. "The project approaches the two presented problems in a single way: the image change of the existing complex and the extension of the floor area at the roof top. […] [A] single type of curtain wall has been developed with windows of reasonable shape and format which curve at the top floor to take advantage of the maximum volume allowed by local building laws, generating an image of the building which is completely different than the actual one. The use of silk printed glass in the whole building, with motives from plants, creates an impression from the interior to be situated in a garden. At the same time the exterior appearance underlines the building’s singularity at the pedestrian level. […] The created extension of the building has a trae [sic] singular shape which one day could host a possible showroom or multifunctional rooms or as executive floor.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with Blaise Sahy. Documenting the project are conceptual, design development, presentation and working drawings, digital, graphic, presentation and reference materials, correspondence, notes, and a model.
