DURRER ARCHITEKTEN

With a keen sense of ornamentation and form, cousins Daniel and Reto Durrer from Switzerland develop architecture that rediscovers the obvious and always remains true to its location. Their work combines materials and history to create a clear yet multi-layered language that reinterprets everyday spaces as well as sacred places. Whether it is the careful redesign of the parish church in Glis or an apartment building like the one in Sarnen, the Obwalden architects always seek a simple, appropriate solution. Working closely with artists and artisans, they create buildings that fit naturally into their context while remaining independent and contemporary.
