The new building on the outskirts of St. Margarethen creates an unusual combination of two uses: it accommodates the Buch fire brigade as well as a general medical practice. The two parallel volumes, unequal in height, are sheathed in a homogeneous cladding of locally sourced silver fir. Together with the sculptural hose-drying tower, they define the edge of the village where it gives way to the meadows and wooded slopes of the Kellerjoch range.
