    Burkhalter Sumi – Corridor in the Forsanose factory conversion, Volketswil  2013. I really like the details of this space, the lack of a baseboard where the walls meet the floor, the projecting doors with flush casing and invisible hinges that are surrounded by a small light box, dropped door hardware to make the space feel taller, the white projecting wall and floor swatch that is tinted blue by the glass above, the linear fluorescent strip to the left and overall color pallet… simple and effective.
