Niederwangen-Ried School and Sports Fields / Büning-Pfaue Kartmann Architekten

The school and sports facility rose together with a new housing estate in Köniz-Niederwangen (outskirts of Bern), which will be ready for full occupancy in 2028: from the now-finished ring road, the future “Papillon” Quarter is currently expanding into the surrounding fields. Elongated pedestals group the residential buildings into lines, which extend from the inner ring toward the forest edge, their configuration tracing the gentle rhythm of the topography.
