Architect Alberto Alessi writes in his essay: “The work of Atelier Gassner is a demonstration of this deeper spatial perception. The goal of their work is to convey a value and not just formal results.” ISBN 978-3-85449-468-3

Andrea Gassner knows how important it is to develop a signature and to incorporate your own identity into your work - for her, the fascination for spaces and architecture has become a kind of trademark.

Through its proportions and materialization, the architecture of Roger Boltshauser’s Ofenturm is itself an exhibit. The aim is to integrate the dramaturgy of the exhibition elements in the powerful building, while not competing with the ensemble. Carefully, but with their own kind of naturalness and functionality, these design elements engage the space, becoming part of a comprehensive scenography.

The Atelier Andrea Gassner was recently commissioned to design a suitable element to mark the entrance. The existing logo is a cross form with narrow openings in a square. The three-dimensional cross form that develops upwards on the plan of the logo conveys a new sculptural expression of the existing symbol. At dusk and in the night strips of lighting shine out of these openings, in this way the sculpture extends outwards and on the ground.
