Description

An ode to the cheese craft

"The Swiss Emmental Embrace", our newest jewel in the Manhattan skyline, is another triumph in the symbiosis of culinary aesthetics and exquisite architecture. With its unmistakable facade reminiscent of the famous Emmental cheese, this skyscraper leaves viewers in a state of amazement and fascination.

Regular symmetry as a design principle

The building's facade is characterized by a series of regular holes that create windows, vents and entrances. We chose the clear geometry and structural monotony of rationalism, combined with the repeatability of modular brutalism.

Relaxed diplomacy

As the home of the Swiss Embassy, "The Swiss Emmental Embrace" strengthens diplomatic relations and promotes cultural interaction. Our architecture acts as a kind of “soft power” that is inviting and elevates diplomatic relations to a new, human level. The cheese facade symbolizes the authenticity, warmth and openness that are essential for successful diplomacy.

The renaissance of yellow in architecture

Yellow, the building's dominant color, is more than just an aesthetic choice. It signals a return to warmth, to nature, to the joy of life - a much-needed respite from the cold and sterility that characterize many modern cities. We believe the 2020s will see a renaissance in the use of yellow in building architecture to restore vitality, optimism and positive energy to our urban landscapes.

A landmark of connection

"The Swiss Emmental Embrace" is more than just a building. It is a landmark that celebrates the connection between Switzerland and the world, combining the joy of cheese-making with the finesse of architecture and serving as a shining symbol of the need for positive, warm-hearted and people-centered urban design. It is a masterpiece of Superfood Commercial Architecture that enriches and enlivens the urban landscape - a true embodiment of our culinary architecture philosophy.
