The Tschudi Gallery was founded in 1985 by Ruedi Tschudi (1940-2019) and Elsbeth Bisig in Glarus. It offers solo and group exhibitions and collaborates with international institutions. Sie bietet Einzel- und Gruppenausstellungen und arbeitet mit internationalen Institutionen zusammen.

In December 2002, a second gallery was opened in Zuoz, which quickly became the main gallery. The gallery is located in a converted medieval building called Chesa Madalena on the historic main square of Zuoz. In September 2022, the new branch opened in Zurich, very close to the Kunsthaus.

We are often confronted with the question of how real exhibition spaces enter our software as digital twins and what steps are necessary before virtual exhibition planning can begin.

One of the most challenging implementations for us – apart from modelling the exhibition spaces of the Louvre Abu Dhabi – was probably the creation of the Zuoz gallery spaces of the Tschudi Gallery.

We are still very proud of this project from 2019 and grateful for the great collaboration with Galerie Tschudi.
We often create our models “only” on the basis of floor plans and a few measurements that we carry out on site.
Sometimes elevations are available, but most of the time we are happy if there is at least a dimensionally accurate floor plan. Of course, we also need some photographic images of the exhibition spaces in order to texture accordingly.

All dies wäre hier der Fall gewesen, nichtsdestotrotz entschieden wir uns in Absprache mit der Galerie für eine Laserscanerfassung vor Ort.

This enabled us to create the model with the highest – perhaps Swiss – precision and to do justice to the architecture, which is not exactly right-angled. In accordance with our demand for the highest image quality, we captured these on site using terrestrial laser scanning and photographic images with digital medium format. Ein schönes Beispiel also, um unser Vorgehen, von der Erfassung bis hin zur Implementierung der virtuellen Räume in unsere Planungssoftware, vorzustellen.
