Novartis Campus – Fabrikstrasse 16
This book, with photographs by the Milan photographer Paolo Rosselli, documents the first laboratory building on the Novartis site and thus continues the exciting series on the Novartis Campus in Basel. The laboratory building was designed by Austrian architect Adolf Krischanitz, already renowned for his extension of the Rietberg Museum in Zurich. The light-flooded laboratory building stands out from traditional solutions for such a task; it has an open atrium extending from the ground floor to the roof, and flexible research and laboratory areas.
