Detail 1/2.2021 Roof Structures

To kick off the new year, our January-February issue focuses on a classic construction topic: roof structures. We take a look at clever shed roofs, modular timber constructions, and roof structures that bring daylight into the interior. In our Technology section, the planners at Lüchinger+Meyer explain the effort that went into engineering the sophisticated structure and facade of the new Audemars Piguet museum in Switzerland. The new building was designed by BIG as a double spiral with load-bearing glass facades and green roofs.
