Now in bookshops: Cœur de l'île - Anna-Seiler-Haus - Inselspital - HG Esch - GWJ - IAAG - ASTOC
A richly illustrated book about the new main building of Bern University Hospital
This opulent photo book is dedicated to the Anna-Seiler-Haus in Bern. As the centrepiece - also known as the Cœur de l'île - the sixteen-storey new building forms the high point of the Inselspital, visible from afar in the cityscape. In general, visual relationships play a decisive role in the orientation of the building and its location in the urban context. With the visual language that characterises him, HGEsch has succeeded in staging the collaborative work of the three architectural firms in a grandiose way across all scales, with surprising glimpses of details, views into and out of the neighbourhood and brilliant panoramic shots with the Bernese Alps on the horizon.
