Top League FIFA World Football Museum, Zurich

The completely refurbished “Haus zur Enge” in Zurich is the location of the FIFA World Football Museum, for whose representative appearance the catering, shop and exhibition areas have been given an overarching design concept.

From the room-defining element of the ceiling, decorative elements that conceal plug-in connections and downlights for uniform, individually switchable essential lighting with a uniform look emerge. As spotlights, large-format ring lights and voluminous round lights take shape of the light that continues in the bar and restaurant area, seminar room, office and apartment entrances and acts as a link for all uses.

Attention is also paid to the facade lighting. Rather cautiously dark during the day, the screen print on the glass is made to glow in the evening with narrow-beam, circumferential linear lighting. The cool light provides a good contrast to the ambient light.
