Entsorgung + Recycling Zürich (ERZ) commissioned us to create a new visitor centre. In March 2024, we began planning and developing content for the new ERZ Hagenholz visitor tour, which focuses on the theme “reducing and avoiding waste”. After an intensive conceptual and construction phase, the client was able to successfully open the experience world in August 2024.
As overall project managers, we were responsible for the entire structural and scenographic implementation – from content development and technical realisation to coordination with the construction management, which oversaw the various trades. The guided tours, led by educational actors, make the topic tangible.
The visual highlight is the scenographic design: in-house manufactured metal structures, interactive stations, and a specially designed wall illustrating recycling and downcycling processes are key elements of the visitor experience. The lighting design enhances the immersive atmosphere of the tour.
Despite a tight schedule of six weeks, the project was completed on time and efficiently. Close collaboration with the involved trades and the use of sustainable materials contributed to the success of the project.
