EPFL raises the bar on high-precision research
Teaching
EPFL
Today’s basic research relies on instruments that are so sensitive that they essentially need to be cut off from the outside world. That’s the idea behind the Advanced Science Building (ASB), a future on-campus structure that will accommodate cutting-edge research labs on seven floors, including two underground. It will be built on the site of the Colladon parking lot, with construction starting in 2026. Architecture firms KAAN Architecten in Rotterdam and Celnikier & Grabli Architectes in Paris won the RFP.
