The in the cooperative treatment developed green strap is lead on in this project. In the southeast of the building the green space is cutting through the architectural complex and is building the east inner yard. At the Northwest the landscape is merging with the adventure playground at the roof of the Kindergarten and is building a wide platform. The transition from the anonymous urban space (Fontanastraße) threw the car-free green strap and the semi-public inner yard is as a consequence gliding.
A hard limit between public and private is prevent and is supporting a good cohabitation. Threw rank scaffoldings in the pedestal area the embedding I the countryside is reinforced. The building and the open space grow together. You’ll find human benchmark in the structural shell.
With the additional use of permissive incisions in the veneer and the synopsizing of balconies in the general appearance a scale between high cube and a single flat is deliberately chosen. No side of the complex equals the other. Every flat is getting sorted distinctive in the overall complex and is receiving its own identity.
The urban structure of the cooperative procedure is allowing generous outlooks in the surrounding countryside. Living spaces were probably planned at the corners of the building to create windows in two directions. Also the positions of the balconies were elected so that the landscape can be experienced perfectly.
