Herzog & DeMueron - Pfaffenholz sports complex, St. Louis 1993. One of the firm’s first experiments with “screen-printed” concrete, which was used more abundantly in later projects. The rear facade features a straw-like insulation, who’s pattern is also screened on the dark glass mounted in front of it. The project sits right on the Swiss/French border, directly adjacent to their spinal rehabilitation center. Photos (C) Margherita Spiluttini, Aron Lorincz.
