Jed is a business and event hub located in Schlieren, Switzerland, on the outskirts of Zurich. The project converts a former train manufacturing plant and later newspaper printing facility into a site of 36,000 square meters with around 2,000 workplaces. Offices, event locations, restaurants, coworking areas and a coffee roastery are combined within post-industrial architecture. The scale of the former printing halls is retained. New floors, two atriums, ramps, bridges and open staircases add daylight, spatial flow and connection.
