Red Square

Welcome to the red carpet! The largest outdoor living room in Switzerland can be found in St.Gallen.

The Citylounge transforms the Bleicheli district into an urban oasis accessible 24/7 for playing, relaxing or conducting business. This unusual project to create a public “Citylounge” was the brain child of architect Carlos Martinez and multimedia artist Pipilotti Rist. A spongy red carpet covers the entire public space to create a giant lounge. Overhead are floating lights that set the scene for different, discreetly changing lighting moods. Pipilotti Rist won the international City-People-Light Award for this glowing moon in 2008.
