Gewerbegebäude Tribschenstrasse 51 | Luzern/Lucerne | Switzerland

The rear of the Gewerbegebäude Tribschen designed by Carl Mossdorf in 1933; view towards Tribschenstrasse taken from Rösslimatte.

“[...] this building should be restored as its architectural importance deserved, and ‘made into a white, sharply contoured structure, with a load-bearing system independent of the outside walls, continuous bands of windows, and a roof terrace with a delicate balustrade, which would demonstrate more clearly than any other in Lucerne the intentions of modern architecture’.”
