Description

Buildings by the Aarau-based practice Frei Architekten AG, which was founded in 1988 by the brothers Peter and Christian Frei, do without extravagant designs and use a reduced range of materials to achieve a powerful building presence. For instance, the replacement building in Zurich's Engelstrasse is subtly integrated into the historical row of houses. The wooden façade of the new storage depot for the Weinkellerei Aarau reflects the activities inside, while also adapting to the industrial character of its surroundings.
