An innovative workspace concept for the Zurich Power Company (ewz)
The Zurich Power Company (ewz) has launched a project to restore and optimize a site it operates in the Swiss municipality of Herdern. The purpose of the project is to establish a second headquarters for the company’s Networks business division in the grounds of the existing premises on Pfingstweid Street. The project’s scope includes the implementation of a new workspace concept featuring both fixed and non-territorial workspaces. With its office-space expertise, our EBP team accompanied the project throughout the planning stage. We also supported ewz by providing comprehensive, phase-specific consulting services relating to the spatial and organizational aspects of the project.
