Primeo AG's ‘W27’ office building in Basel-Münchenstein iscurrently being extensively modernised and converted from traditionalindividual offices into a modern office concept. Under the name‘New-Work@Primeo’, we were entrusted with the task of carrying out the entireremodelling, initially on the top floor of the four-storey building, with aparticular focus on integrating a sustainable ventilation and cooling system.The latter is due to the construction method typical of the 1960s, in whichconcrete was a popular and widely used building material. It is well known thatconcrete has poor insulation and inadequate ventilation quality, which leads toconsiderable heating problems and inadequate cooling, particularly on the topfloor.
Together with the client and the specialist planners, we aretackling this situation with an innovative concept and, instead of conventionalair conditioning and ventilation systems, are opting for a more environmentallyfriendly solution: a clay construction as a cooling ceiling. Loam, a naturalmixture of clay, sand and silt, has been used as a building material forcenturies. Even in ancient times, and in the construction of the pyramids, claywas used. Thanks to its excellent thermal properties, clay can store heat andat the same time absorb and evenly release moisture. This promotes a constantlevel of humidity and prevents condensation from forming, which in turnminimises the risk of mould growth. The clay ceiling also enables continuouscooling without conventional air conditioning systems. Not insignificant: apleasant indoor climate contributes significantly to better concentration amongemployees and therefore improves working conditions in the long term.
But the clay ceiling is not the only part of the concept.The construction can be easily integrated into a modern climate control systemand includes the connection to automated blinds and CO2 measuring devices toprecisely regulate the room temperature and humidity as well as the oxygencontent. The ceiling construction therefore does not work on its own, but inthe context of an intelligent control system, which in turn accesses a weatherstation - installed on the roof of Primeo AG. As soon as a certain level ofsunlight intensity is reached, this weather station sends a signal to theblinds, which then close. The CO2 meter monitors the carbon dioxide level inthe room and opens the blinds and windows when the level rises. At night, everysecond window opens to let in cool air (night cooling) so that the structurecools down and therefore requires less cooling capacity during the day. Thiscreates a closed cooling circuit that ensures improved room quality in asustainable way.
Another advantage of the clay ceiling is its durability.With the right care, it can remain in use for many years. Any damage can berepaired simply by re-plastering or repairs, and maintenance is uncomplicated,without the need for special cleaning agents or complex procedures. The onlydrawback is that subsequent installations on the ceiling are time-consuming, asthe cooling pipes have to be probed beforehand to avoid damaging them.
Overall, this type of building automation and thecombination of the natural properties of clay with modern control technologiesoffers a sustainable cooling and ventilation system that meets today'sstandards for environmentally friendly construction. Optimised energyconsumption and sustainable use of resources included.

What actually is... amock-up?Sketches, drawings,floor plans, 3D models - the language used by architectural designers tocommunicate visually is not always easy to understand right away in reality -after all, visualizations often only offer a perspective view and plans, gridsand the like must also be able to be read. And even if digitalization has longsince found its way into the field of construction (planning) and architecture,the implementation of a project and the end result is still a highly analoguematter that involves sensory perception. So what helps to illustrate ideas andpossible projects in the best possible way and to give clients, but also thecontractors, tradespeople and suppliers involved, a comprehensive picture ofwhat the future could look like? Exactly, a mock-up, i.e. a modelrepresentation on a scale of 1:1. The term mock-up has its origins in French(maquette) and means something like preliminary model, sketch or draft.
Efficient, cost-effective and high-quality: our new-build project in Basel/Binningen with prefabricated façade elements. What convinced us... We are currently working on the construction of a new apartment block (MFH) in Basel/Binningen, where we are in the middle of the shell construction and suggested a kind of modular system to the client, more precisely the use of prefabricated façade elements.
We decided to work with ERNE AG Holzbau, which specialises in prefabricated façade systems. Together, we developed a combination of reinforced concrete ceilings with steel columns and non-load-bearing façade elements for our project. The following advantages drove us to pursue this concept:
A key benefit is the time factor: prefabricated façade elements are manufactured in the factory and can then be assembled on site, which significantly reduces the overall construction time. In addition, you are less dependent on favourable weather conditions, as it is more difficult to work in hail, snow or 35 degrees than under weather-independent conditions in the production hall, where the right tools, materials and expertise are always immediately available.
In Liesberg, we are currently realising a residential building that deliberately leverages the complex conditions of its hillside location. The clear orientation and carefully positioned openings towards the landscape not only enable impressive long-distance views; the quality of living inside is also enhanced by a sustainable construction approach and integrated building services, designed with the future in mind. We spoke with our client and developer and asked…
DEEP DIVE – Auseinandersetzung mit Branchen-Themen: Bauindustrie zwischen Politischem Mikromanagement und Europäisierung
Rückblick auf unser Podiumsgespräch im Klybeck Areal am 3. September 2024. Am 3. September 2024 fand im Klybeck Areal ein spannendes Podiumsgespräch statt, das sich mit der Frage beschäftigte, wie die Bauindustrie den Spagat zwischen politischem Mikromanagement und Europäisierung meistern kann. Gastgeberin auf dem Klybeck Areal war Anita Fetz, alt Ständerätin und Verwaltungsrätin der Rhystadt AG. Auf dem Podium waren Hans Peter Wessels, alt Regierungsrat Kanton Basel-Stadt, Gabriela Theus, Geschäftsführerin Immofonds Asset Management AG Zürich sowie Christian W. Blaser, Blaser Architekten Basel. Moderiert wurde das Podium von Manuel Hutter, Verwaltungsrat der Kontur Projektmanagement AG. Anlass für uns, das Gespräch und die Gedanken dieses Abends noch einmal Revue passieren zu lassen...
Press Release. After 20 years at the helm of the Board of Trustees of Architektur Dialoge, Christian W. Blaser has stepped down as President. With the transition to a rotational chairmanship within the board, the foundation is reorganising its structure while continuing its established event series and maintaining a focus on the foundation’s future development.
Auf den ersten Blick weckt derBegriff «Corporate Architecture» oft die Vorstellung von uniformen,austauschbaren Gebäuden ohne erkennbaren Bezug zum jeweiligen Standort. Dochals Architekten und Generalplaner, die immer wieder in diesem Bereich tätigsind, wissen wir: Hinter Corporate Architecture stehen komplexe Aufgaben, derenUmsetzung Präzision, Adaption, Kommunikation, logistische Fähigkeiten undweitere anspruchsvolle Kompetenzen erfordert – genau diese Herausforderungenmachen solche Projekte für uns besonders spannend.
The topic of green roofs and biodiversity conservation in inner cities has gained increasing importance in recent years and is becoming a key component of sustainable urban planning. As an architectural practice, we regularly engage with this subject, for example through our work on the Stücki Park project on Hochbergstrasse. This provides good reason to take a closer look. In line with our credo “sharing experience”, we aim to gain deeper insights into why urban greening and bird conservation are so important and what role Basel plays in this context. We spoke with two experts on the subject. We begin with Dr. phil. nat. Jean-Pierre Biber from the Advisory Office for Bird Issues, Department for Nature and Landscape Conservation of the Canton of Basel-Stadt.
The main campus of the Switzerland Innovation Park Basel Area is home to numerous innovative companies in the biotech and healthtech sectors. The University Hospital Basel also maintains a branch here, offering a forward-looking learning environment through the Skills Lab Simulation Centre. We reached out to Prof. Raphael Guzman, Head of Clinic and Chief Physician of Neurosurgery at the University Hospital Basel, to learn more about the benefits of the new Skills Lab.
