Author Description

- Large-format photo book with impressive pictures by HGEsch - Pioneering architecture for a new building of the university hospital This opulent photo book is dedicated to the Anna-Seiler-Haus in Bern. The new sixteen-story building forms the centerpiece - also known as the Coeur de l'île - of the Inselspital, which is visible from afar in the cityscape. In general, visual relation- ships play a decisive role in orientation within the building and localization in the urban context. The photographer HGEsch has succeeded in staging the collaborative work of the three architectural firms in a magnificent way across all scales, with surprising glimpses of details, views into and out of the neighborhood and brilliant panoramic shots with the Bernese Alps on the horizon. Text in English, German and French.
