The Kunsthalle Zürich is an art space in the Löwenbräu complex at Limmatstrasse 270 in Zürich. The Kunsthalle was founded in 1985 and has been based in the complex since 1996. Gigon/Guyer Architects redeveloped its premises, with Atelier WW named on one 2012 report. The renovated space reopened, and the official opening was on August 31, 2012.
The architects restructured the space completely. They added an intermediate floor to two existing exhibition spaces. It holds a public library, offices, meeting rooms, an archive and workshops. A white cube on top of the building forms a supplementary floor and marks the Kunsthalle's presence.
The complex also houses the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst and a number of international galleries, around a courtyard. Gigon/Guyer also designed the Kirchner Museum in Davos and the Prime Tower in Zürich.
