The landscape architect designed the principal outdoor spaces surrounding the headquarters including the Forum square, the Courtyard, and the streetscape along Fabrikstrasse. The entry component of the Forum square is modeled after a historic town square to honor Basel’s history. Located just beyond the main gate off Fabrikstrasse, it is a simple, elegantly proportioned stone plaza centered on a bosque of thirty-five grandly scaled Pin oaks. Historically a symbolic species to Basel’s former Celtic population, Pin oaks were used to define communal and sacred spaces. Native to the region, the mature oaks were carefully placed adjacent to the buildings in a pattern extending the architectural grid of the surrounding buildings. The trees unify the vibrant architecture at its perimeter, and brilliantly change colors from summer to fall.
