‘Science City’ is the development vision for the university campus of the 21st century for the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. The campus is required to act as an interface between scholarship and society, to offer a place for business, economics, politics and scholarship to interact. The campus’ boundaries and the landscape qualities of the Hönggerberg will be retained and the existing campus, by contrast, will be transformed internally and condensed into a multifaceted urban area to increase its capacity.
