The Circle is a prime example of high-density construction, taking 30,000 m² of floor space and transforming it into 180,000 m² of usable space. The building complex at Switzerland’s largest airport in Zurich-Kloten is also setting new standards when it comes to sustainability. Geberit is also making a contribution here with a range of products.
Anyone arriving at The Circle – before flying off on holiday, for example – would be forgiven for thinking they are in a city centre and not at an airport. The Circle is a modern development that is home to shops, bars and restaurants, offices of international companies and a congress centre for 2,500 guests. Two Hyatt hotels and an out-patient clinic run by University Hospital Zurich round off the amenities on offer in this bustling hub, where the 30,000 m² of floor space originally available has now been multiplied. This concept is known as high-density construction, where every cubic metre is valuable and can be used in a wide variety of ways.
