Nidwalden is one of Switzerland's smallest cantons with a correspondingly modest competition volume. Stans and Hergiswil are the main venues. School buildings, municipal infrastructure and public administration buildings are in the foreground.
Nidwalden sits on Lake Lucerne and has a growing population attracted by its fiscal appeal and proximity to Lucerne. This growth drives school planning and infrastructure projects. Open project competitions under SIA 142 are the standard approach.
As a small canton, Nidwalden enables close client relationships and direct dialogue between authorities and planning teams.
