On the architectural and urban levels, the project for new Swatch and Omega headquarters in Bienne is a new urban complex reacting volumetrically to the specificities of its immediate environment. The layout of buildings provides the main arteries which expand sequentially to create user-friendly meeting areas. This process continues in the development of outdoor garden areas offering leisure areas for staff and visitors.
