by With the theme of architecture and fashion design, the renowned German online magazine IGNANT and the Zurich Tourism Bureau are gathering together to launch a new city travel guide covering the upscale charm of Zurich from different dimensions such as art, food, hotels.
CULTURE
Museum für Gestaltung
Address: Ausstellungsstrasse 60 8005 Zurich
Time: Tuesday to Sunday 10:00-17:00 Wednesday 10:00-20:00
The Design Museum Zurich is Switzerland’s leading design and visual communication museum, with a collection of more than 500,000 different pieces from traditional design to graphic design, applied art, poster design, etc., and is one of the most visited museums in Zurich. These collections are milestones in the development of human design aesthetics, and the museum is part of the Zurich University of the Arts.
Pavillon Le Corbusier
Address: Hoschgasse 8, 8008 Zurich
Time: Tuesday to Wednesday 12:00-18:00 Thursday 12:00-20:00 Friday to Sunday 12:00-18:00
Le Corbusier, the most famous architect, urban planner and writer of the 20th century, was a major advocate of modernist architecture and an important founder of machine aesthetics, known as the “father of functionalism”. The building, Le Corbusier’s last work, is not only a place to see his pioneering thinking on modern architecture, art, and the aesthetics of life, but also a collection of his classic furniture design works, which is well worth a visit.
Maschinenfabrik Oerlikon
Address: Elias-Canetti-Strasse, 8050 Zurich
Time: 00:00-24:00
The MFO Vertical Park is located on the former site of a locomotive factory in Zurich. Unlike traditional parks, the MFO transformed the building from three-dimensional to three-dimensional visual green space art, but retained the activity space and green landscape of the park itself. The park has won numerous awards since its completion, and the conceptual design of the interweaving and fusion of metal and plants almost abstracts the reconstruction of the modern city.
EAT
Hatecke Bar Boucherie
Address: Usteristrasse 12, 8001 Zurich
Time: Monday 10:00-19:00 Tuesday to Friday 09:00-22:00 Saturday 09:00-19:00
Hatecke Bar Boucherie is definitely a meat-lover’s paradise, and unlike ordinary restaurants, all the meat here is transformed into a work of art by the chef.
Secondly, because the meat selected by the restaurant is raised in the Swiss mountains with an extremely beautiful environment, the quality is extremely good. Combined with the 100 years of experience of four generations of chefs in the restaurant, it is definitely worth everyone coming to taste.
EquiTable
Address: Stauffacherstrasse 163, 8004 Zurich
Time: Tuesday to Saturday 18:30-00:00
Before the concept of sustainability entered the food world, EquiTable’s chef Fabian Fuchs has been thinking about how to prepare the most exquisite food in the most environmentally friendly and natural conditions.
Although this restaurant has a small kitchen and can only serve more than 30 guests per night, as a top restaurant frequented by many foodies around the world, I believe it will not disappoint you.
SLEEP
B2 Boutique Hotel and Spa
Address: Brandschenkestrasse 152, 8002 Zurich
Time: 00:00-24:00
The overall design of B2 Boutique Hotel and Spa combines industrial architectural thinking with a boutique hotel, while also incorporating a hot spring spa program.
Get up in the morning and enjoy a high-level SPA service on the roof of the hotel, and unwind the fatigue of yesterday’s trip in the 38 degree spring water rich in various rich minerals. After going downstairs, go to the restaurant and bar with the wine museum and enjoy a luxurious Brunch!
Signau House and Garden
Address: Signaustrasse 6, 8008 Zurich
Time: 00:00-24:00
The Signau House and Garden, located on a hill in Zurich, was originally built in 1912 as a villa residence for local aristocrats and was renovated as a hotel in 2018.
In addition to maintaining the architectural style and advanced taste of the beginning of the 20th century, the entire building shows the Swiss people’s experience in the use of ultra-luxury luxury goods. Although the hotel is hidden from the city, for the owner: “Perhaps you would like to come and have breakfast with me.”
