This infrastructural building is located in a residential area in Zollikon, southeast of Zurich. The building is integrated into the landscape without interrupting the view from the square above onto Lake Zurich. A façade folded into the hill and wrapped around the delivery entrance disguises the real shape and size of the power supply installations for 2000 households.
