The Circle at Zurich Airport is a mixed-use development designed by New York-based avant-garde architectural firm Asymptote Architecture. The complex near Zurich’s international airport seeks to become a cultural, commercial, health, and educational destination to the city while serving the needs of travelers. It is designed as four towers above a three story plinth that connects to the surrounding landscape. Between each tower there are external galleries that connect the interior of the Circle to the city. Asymptote’s design anticipates the evolution in transportations hubs that will become active urban environments utilizing the energy and action of flight and internationalism.
