  • Rethinking linen

    Rethinking linen

    The Biäsche work area combines location qualities that are rare in this form. The motorway junction, a goods station and natural recreational areas are right on the doorstep. Between municipal boundaries, transport axes and the natural environment lies an area that is to be economically considered, intelligently planned and sustainably utilised. The plots are in public, private and cantonal ownership. A constellation that requires integrative development.

    From area to function
    There is currently a lack of maturity in terms of planning and building law. Without development and development planning, the potential remains unutilised. For this reason, a test planning procedure examined various utilisation scenarios and development strategies. The aim was to create a clearly positioned, marketable economic area that is ready for low-emission, high value-added businesses. Staging this development is key. The site can only be developed sustainably in the long term with flexible, compatible concepts.

    One location, many interests
    The municipality of Glarus Nord holds 3.8 hectares of undeveloped employment zone land in the Unterflechsen sub-area. The canton of Glarus owns a further 2.7 ha in the neighbouring Mittelflechsen area. There are specific interests for this area. A salmon farm and a new penal centre are under discussion. The area is supplemented by private land and existing uses. This diversity makes spatial coordination a key planning task.

    Infrastructure as a driver of development
    Biäsche is ideally positioned in terms of transport links. The area is served by national transport routes operated by SBB and FEDRO. However, future-proof development requires that motorised traffic, public transport, pedestrian and bicycle traffic as well as supply and disposal infrastructures are coordinated and planned with foresight. This is the only way to create a location that is economically attractive and ecologically responsible.

    Indicative project as the key to progress
    After the test planning for the Biäsche site development was completed in June 2023, the concepts of Ernst Niklaus Fausch Partner AG and Studio Vulkan Landschaftsarchitektur AG will be further developed into an indicative project by August 2025 as part of a synthesis phase. As a synthesis, the indicative project summarises the parameters of the site development that the signatories consider to be correct and shows the main features of how the site should develop in the short, medium and long term. This serves as the basis for the subsequent development plan and perimeter procedure.

    Both the municipalities and the canton of Zug are constantly evolving and adapting to the requirements.

  • Attractive residential and commercial mix with industrial charm

    Attractive residential and commercial mix with industrial charm

    Cotton yarns were produced on the Bühler site for over 160 years. At the end of 2016, the spinning mill was shut down in order to give the site a new purpose: an attractive residential and commercial area. In the process, the four industrial buildings (spinning mill, bale warehouse, factory and power plant) will be converted into flats as well as flexibly usable commercial spaces and a bistro.

    The “factory” and the “bale warehouse” are intended for individual commercial uses. Built in the 1980s, the factory halls are ideal for production, workshops, laboratories and training rooms. Generous windows and gates on the southwest façade provide natural light and direct access to the halls. Offices and studios are housed in the former service wing. An underground car park with around 100 parking spaces has been created in the basement. The bale warehouse can be used as an unheated workshop or storage area.

    A diverse mix of flats will be built in the “Spinnerei” by 2026: 89 loft-like flats are planned, which will be built according to Minergie standards. Seven flats in terraced house style extend over three floors. They have a garden, a balcony and a direct view of the Töss. The mezzanine floor of the spinning mill building, which dates back to 1860, is partly intended for commercial use and is accessed via a platform. The “power plant” continues to generate renewable energy from hydropower. The adjoining former energy centre will be converted into a bistro.

    The owners attach great importance to preserving the historical heritage and industrial charm of the site. The site scores with its good location: Winterthur city centre is just a few minutes away – the airport and the city of Zurich can be reached in half an hour by car or train. The “Sennhof-Kyburg” S-Bahn connection is only 400 metres away. And yet the future residential and commercial quarter is located directly on the banks of the Töss and offers an unobstructed view of the Kyburg.
