Therwil Terraced House / Lütiens Padmanabhan Architekten

In Switzerland, the terraced house has been a popular building type since the postwar construction boom. With its stepped volume, large terraces, and sweeping views, it provided a solution to issues of modern housing in a hilly landscape. In more recent versions of the type, the entry to the underground parking garage has become the building’s main entrance, making it part of Switzerland’s contemporary car-centered suburban lifestyle.
