Torsten Schmiedeknecht describes four Swiss buildings that adopt a formal language of Rationalist rigour to dramatic effect. Despite all being institutional buildings, they vary widely in their treatments interpreting a Rationalist vocabulary in very different ways, from the unstinting austerity of GWJ Architekten's UVEK Administration Centre to Andrea Bassi's intentionally playful La Maladière Primary School in Neuchâtel.
