Fondation Beyeler Expansion by Atelier Peter Zumthor

The Fondation Beyeler is undergoing a significant expansion, designed by Atelier Peter Zumthor, to enhance its integration of art, architecture, and nature. The project includes new buildings, an expanded park, and redesigned historic structures.

The expansion aims to further solidify the foundation's international reputation for its unique interplay between art, architecture, and nature.

The new ensemble, covering 26,500 m², is scheduled for completion in 2026.

During a preview phase from September 26, 2026, to January 14, 2027, visitors will be able to experience Peter Zumthor's new buildings, the expanded and restored Beyeler Park, and the redesigned historic buildings, in addition to Renzo Piano's existing museum.

Key collaborators on the project include Gruner for flood protection, Matì Lichtgestaltung for lighting design, Waldhauser + Hermann for HVACR, Müller-BBM for acoustics, BWS Bauphysik for building physics, PZM for electrical engineering, Schnetzer Puskas Ingenieure for structural engineering, Vogt Landschaftsarchitekten for landscape architecture, and Rapp Architekten for construction management.

The project is located in Riehen, Switzerland, and is commissioned by the Beyeler-Stiftung.
