One of the guidelines for the master plan was the requirement to clearly define three elements on the facade: the plinth, with a height of 4.5 m, the main body and the roof. Another of the requirements was to remove between 10 and 12% of the envelope, by incorporating balconies and terraces in order to compensate for the depth of the bay. Müller Sigrist improves on the regulatory requirements by increasing the distance between slabs on the terraces and the main room to 4 m in order to let more sunlight in.
It forms part of the proposal for a compact dense city of Hunziker Areal.
