Dreispitz Basel / Münchenstein
Art and Design
Around 1,000 students, lecturers and employees of the Basel Academy of Art and Design FHNW have their study and workplaces in the high-rise building and the converted former bonded warehouse.
The properties used by the Basel Academy of Art and Design FHNW border on Freilager-Platz. This singular open space on the Dreispitz site has an overarching and identity-forming significance. It serves both the university and the surrounding institutions and neighbours as a meeting place and venue. Alongside the Transit Warehouse (flats, offices, public uses), the House of Electronic Arts Basel HeK, the exhibition space OSLO10, the Atelier Mondial and the archive and residential building by the architects Herzog & de Meuron, the Basel Academy of Art and Design FHNW has become a weighty factor within the rapidly progressing development of the district. The university seeks committed exchange.
