Design: Eternit from Payerne wanted to complement its premises with a warehouse that was as economical as possible. Roof beams with an axial distance of 7.5 metres cover the hall, which measures 44.5 metres in width. The building is 91 metres long. The hall segments have different roof pitches and coincide laterally and in height. Every other segment is mirrored across the main axis, creating a characteristic roof structure that touches the roof of the adjacent Eternit production hall. The façade flows directly into the roof surface. The roof and façade surfaces are made of corrugated Eternit panels. The front sides are covered with translucent corrugated polycarbonate panels.
Wood: The construction consciously used native wood, which allows for a sensual and sophisticated construction. The regional timber elements were mass-produced in artisanal companies in the immediate vicinity.
Energy: The building is not insulated, but can be retrofitted with insulation in the timber structure if necessary.
