Swiss Visions

We at Création Baumann are delighted to support the event «A New Generation of Architectural Expressions» in Tokyo.

At Création Baumann, we take pride in our support for the Tokyo-based event: Swiss Visions - «A New Generation of Architectural Expressions».

The Japan Swiss Architectural Association (JSAA) is pleased to announce the opening of an exhibition of video and sound installations «Swiss Visions - A New Generation of Architectural Expressions» by four Swiss architects: BYJUNG / Truwant+Rodet+ / WALDRAP / Weyell Zipse.

Swiss architectural expression may give a strong impression of stoicism, with abstract drawings and realistic renderings. In recent years, however, Switzerland has been creating a powerful and fresh architectural expression that is a departure from the past, with colourful drawings, collages and exquisite, figurative models.

The exhibition focuses on video works, including models, drawings, collages and photographs produced by each architect, and introduces new architectural expressions created by the architects to express their concepts. In order to reduce carbon emissions as much as possible, only digital information will be transferred from Switzerland to Japan for this exhibition, thus exploring the next generation of exhibition methods.

As the third event of the Japan Swiss Architectural Culture Association (JSAA), established in 2018 as a platform for architectural cultural exchange between Japan and Switzerland, the exhibition will introduce new architectural expressions by young Swiss architects.
