Information

The multi-family house is located on the mountain side of Rüschlikon railway station. The building was threatened with demolition, but when the Rüschlikon Housing Foundation acquired the property, plans were made and implemented to renovate and modernise the building to make it more energy efficient. The external insulation was carried out using our efficient, high-performance insulation plaster Fixit 222 Aerogel, which allowed the original appearance of the building to be preserved.

The block of flats, built in 1935, has undergone a complete refurbishment. In order to improve the building’s energy efficiency in future and enhance indoor comfort, it was refurbished using Fixit 222 Aerogel high-performance insulating plaster. The plaster was applied using the spray-plastering method. Our Fixit 745 design plaster was used as the finishing coat. The two-tone façade design is particularly striking with its pastel shades of green.

Parish assistant's house renovation Bremgarten

The late Gothic building probably served as a chaplaincy for the Bullingerpfründe and became a parish assistant's house after the recatholisation in 1531. The building, which is now a listed building, has been renovated several times over the centuries – most recently in 1990. Following the conversion and energy-efficient renovation in 2016, the historic building continues to be used for residential purposes. A studio was created on the ground floor, which could also be used as a one-room flat with a small kitchen and bathroom. A 2.5-room flat was created on the first floor and a 4.5-room maisonette flat on the second floor. In addition, a basement extension with a new archive for the parish was built.
