BARBARA BUSER – SWISS PIONEER OF SUSTAINABILITY (wt)

FEATURE DOCUMENTARY IN DEVELOPMENT
by Gabriele Schärer

The Basel based architect Barbara Buser reconstructs empty buildings into living spaces by using existing building components, and thereby invigorates entire living areas. Her visionnary constructions brought Barbara Buser awards such as the Prix Meret Oppenheim. As successful woman in a male-dominated profession she is a role model for younger women. The film portrait shows Barbara Buser’s adventurous career inside a ecological departure.
