The Swiss National Museum in Zurich is one of Switzerland’s most important cultural institutions. For the presentation of sensitive historical objects, Sehner developed bespoke display case solutions that combine conservation requirements, architectural integration and visual clarity. Glass, metal and wood were coordinated in one precise process to meet the curatorial and spatial requirements of the project.
