Private project competition by invitation, single-stage, anonymous procedure with six architectural firms and landscape architects.

The project is based on the master plan "Center development Bahnhof West, Effretikon". In addition to some office space, the high-rise building on construction site E2 contains 125 rental apartments with 1.5 to 5 rooms, most of which are oriented in two directions. The central element of each unit is the four-season room, which structures the living and dining area. A two-storey office wing also rises above the base floor, which houses a large-scale distributor. For the neighboring construction site E1, the project envisages a seven-storey, almost square volume with an inner courtyard. The main use there also consists of apartments, supplemented by commercial space and offices.
