Löwenbräuareal by Gigon Guyer Architekten is a exemplary renovation and expansion project of an iconic brewery complex of 1897 in Zurich, Switzerland. While the complex was previously only used for beer production, the transformation of 2014 provided a vibrant mix of cultural spaces, offices, and residences.
This project contributes to the social-ecological transformation by exemplifying sustainable urban development principles. The renovation and expansion of the former brewery complex in Zurich involve adaptive reuse, preserving the existing structures and integrating them into a contemporary urban environment.
