Background

"Gesamtgestaltung Schulhaus Tscharnergut" by Roland Gfeller-Corthésy, from 1975, combines several parts, including the design of the square, the classroom doors and a color gradient running through the floors. The school stands at Fellerstrasse 18 in Bern. The Tscharnergut housing estate was built between 1958 and 1965. Five 20-storey point blocks rise in the northern part of the site. Besides flats, the complex includes a school, kindergartens, shops and senior housing.
