A High-End Workspace for Swiss Watchmaking Excellence

Project Overview

In the heart of Switzerland’s renowned watchmaking region, Maars delivered a sophisticated workspace solution for one of the country’s most respected luxury watch manufacturers. While confidentiality prevents us from naming the client, the project reflects the exceptional standards associated with Swiss precision engineering and craftsmanship.

Located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, a city internationally recognized for its watchmaking heritage, the facility required interior spaces that would support highly specialized activities while maintaining a refined and professional environment. The result is a workplace where functionality, aesthetics, and performance work together seamlessly.


Designed for Precision and Performance

Watchmaking demands extraordinary attention to detail. Every component, process, and workspace must contribute to accuracy, concentration, and operational efficiency.

For this project, Maars implemented the String² partition system, creating a series of enclosed workspaces, meeting rooms, circulation areas, and support facilities that provide both visual openness and spatial definition.

The design balances transparency with privacy, allowing natural light to flow throughout the facility while ensuring dedicated spaces for focused work. Clean sightlines, slim profiles, and carefully integrated detailing reinforce the precision-driven character of the environment.


String²: Elegance Meets Technical Excellence

The String² partition system was selected for its ability to combine high-end aesthetics with advanced performance characteristics.

Key benefits delivered to the project include:

  • Slim, refined aluminium profiles
  • High acoustic performance for focused working environments
  • Extensive glazed sections that maximize daylight penetration
  • Clean, minimalist detailing throughout the interior
  • Seamless integration with doors and solid wall elements
  • Flexible configuration possibilities for evolving workspace needs

The result is an interior architecture solution that reflects the same commitment to quality and precision found in the timepieces produced within the facility.


A Cohesive Architectural Identity

A distinctive feature of the project is the use of dark, elegant finishes throughout the partition system. The deep-toned wall surfaces and framing create a strong architectural identity while emphasizing the transparency of the glazed elements.

The contrast between the dark partition structures, bright ceilings, and generous glazing establishes a sophisticated visual rhythm across the workspace. This approach enhances both the professional atmosphere and the overall user experience.

Whether viewed from open circulation zones or enclosed rooms, the spaces communicate clarity, organization, and craftsmanship.


Supporting Modern Manufacturing Environments

Today’s manufacturing facilities require more than production areas alone. They must also provide high-quality office and support spaces that encourage collaboration, concentration, and operational efficiency.

By integrating modular partition systems throughout the facility, the project benefits from:

  • Clearly defined work zones
  • Improved acoustic comfort
  • Enhanced visual connectivity
  • Increased access to natural daylight
  • Future flexibility for organizational changes

The completed environment successfully supports both the technical requirements of the business and the wellbeing of its occupants.
