Establishing a “Swiss House” over the San Francisco Bay, this project brings multiple Swiss entities together under one roof at the east end of historic Pier 17. The new hub of Swiss government, education, business, and innovation partners — including the Consulate General of Switzerland — will provide a gateway to the dynamic cultural life and economy of the Bay Area and nurture bilateral relations. The interior buildout of flexible offices and co-working and meeting spaces is designed to reflect the nonconformist creativity and courageous inquiry shared by both Switzerland and California, featuring a dramatic operable glass garage door at the end of the pier that provides a one-of-a-kind aperture to spectacular water views.
