House of Switzerland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The concept was already used in events such as the 2012 Summer Olympics. The new house (not depicted) is made for the 2014 Winter Olympics but designed to be re-used.

The House of Switzerland is a Swiss hospitality centre, meeting point, and social hub. The new house ("Swiss Mobile House") was developed by Presence Switzerland in 2013, for the 2014 Winter Olympics; on 15 February 2014, Vladimir Putin visited it and ate a raclette there.[1]

The prefabricated house is designed to be mobile and was re-used in other occasions, such as Expo 2015.[2]
