WSJ Design Issue with Hertzog & de Meuron

Volunteer

Today's Wall Street Journal has a companion monthly issue which this month is the 'Design Issue'. It has a lengthy story on H&dM and other design articles. Prolly worth a look. Oddly enough their main offices in Berne fronting the Rhine look like a scruffy version of something Baron Haussmann would have put on the Seine. Go figure.

Their main office is in Basel.

You are correct, their offices are on the Rhine which flows though Basel, not Berne. My bad. They are at St. Johanns-Vorstadt 98 4056 Basel.

Is HdM also involved in the wiring of your place?

Neither tower is very original of course, but at least HdM got theirs built...

I'm unsure if DC is making a bad joke or having a mental breakdown.

This comment applies to his posts in various threads over the past month, but this in particular is, uh, wow.
