LINDT HOME OF CHOCOLATE

Lindt Home of Chocolate in Kilchberg, Switzerland was designed by Christ and Gantenbein.This is the HQ of Lindt and Sprungli which has a factory, multiple warehouses and an office building as well as a museum. A new spatial design was achieved with this structure,where entertainment and interaction are seen throughout the building’s interior.The building has an urban structure that stands out against its surroundings, and it has a white brick glazed exterior which represents coolness and will capture passer-by’s attention (it is described as ‘welcoming the public in’). Whilst I find the museum quite simple and basic, especially if used for inspiration for a leisure centre as most are rectangular or square shaped,I do like the cool tones used and the way the white contrasts with the brown,and the overall structure.
