Christ & Gantenbein: Around the Corner
Text by Markus Breitschmid, Victoria Easton. Interview by Victoria Easton.

Emmanuel Christ (born 1970) and Christoph Gantenbein (born 1971) are prominent international representatives of the youngest generation of Swiss architects. After completing their degrees at the ETH Zurich, they opened their offices in 1998. Completed projects to date include the Ancient Tree Pavilion in China (2007); the renovation and extension to the National Museum in Zurich (2002); and the conversion of the Swiss Church in London (2010). In 2010, the office won the competition to build the extension to the Kunstmuseum in Basel, which is scheduled for completion in 2015. This volume provides a general overview of Christ & Gantenbein’s work to date, including their most recent proposals, but it particularly focuses on two very different projects: the Volta Mitte Housing and Commercial Building in Basel and the London Swiss Church. An extended interview and an illustrated essay elucidate the duo’s design ethos.
