Hardstrasse 299/301 – Flexible, industrially inspired office building

With Hardstrasse 299/301, Caruso St John Architects have created a striking office building in the heart of Zurich West, which, with its floor-by-floor green facade, provides a lively contrast to its dense surroundings. The vertical layer of plants not only creates a sense of identity, but also improves the urban microclimate and gives the facade a soft, breathing texture. Precisely placed horizontal bands and large-format windows give the volume a sense of rhythm and create light-flooded, flexible office spaces with a high quality of stay. While the public-oriented ground floor uses activate the street space, the upper floors offer modern working environments at Minergie-Eco level. Materials such as terrazzo, steel, and smooth plaster emphasize the architectural precision and combine contemporary design with the industrial heritage of Zurich West. Its direct location on Escher-Wyss-Platz and renowned tenants such as Partner RE make the property a sought-after business address with urban character.
