The new Rubiswil retirement home replaced the existing home (Abendruh) in Ibach-Schwyz. In addition to the cosy architectural style, large, colourfully painted walls dominate the Interior of the building. In contrast, the signage is simple and unpretentious. With their subtle overlappings, the bronze lettering used on the façade and floor numbers plays on the circular patterns of the artwork created for the building.
