Text description provided by the architects.
The new Visitor Centre at the Swiss Ornithological Ins- titute has been built on the banks of Sempachersee. Its function is to provide the public with more information about the work of the Ornithological Institute and about bird life in Switzerland.
The compact, polygon structures have been positioned so that they interact with the countryside and the lake. One part of the building houses the extremely flexible exhibition hall. The area between the buildings has been made into a spacious foyer, from where there is access to all parts of the exhibition.

The area between the buildings has been made into a spacious foyer, from where there is access to all parts of the exhibition.
The showcase aviary at the end of the foyer offers a gradual, fleeting transition between the inside and outside worlds. The building’s self-supporting outer shell is comprised of solid walls made of rammed earth.
With the addition of simple timber constructions, they give the Visitor Centre, which satisfies the “Minergie-P-eco” standard, its characteristic appearance and do justice to the sustainability concept.

At the 2017 'European Museum of the Year Award', the visitor center received the special award for the most sustainable project. The 'EMYA' is awarded by the Council of Europe and has been awarded annually since 1977.
