Project highlights
The exceptional location was marked by bustling vivid Reeperbahn street. This street is remarkable not only by it's architectural diversity which is represented by modern and old fashioned buildings. Also our site located close to the plaza which is famous by different kind of events. According to all this information we have thought how to create building which will perfectly fit into this environment.
The street is very vivid but some people who live there don't feel protected in their own houses. So our building was designed to lessen noise from the street and make inhabitants feel more comfortable. But we didn't want to separate houses and city.
Passages allow to walk all around the building. But still it requires to keep intimacy so inhabitants feel protected and safe. That's why we designed our facades which overlook streets as an originally designed white brick wall. Considering site surroundings, with many theatres around we designed special parametric brickwork for our outer facade which reminds of a theater stage curtains. It is latticed and easily transmits light. This modern facade made of traditional material and perfectly fits to its current environment.
Also the shape of the building is created in special way. It's a little bit higher from the Reeperbahn street and works as noise protector. And its declines to opposite angle so the shape of the roof is perfect to install solar panels.
In the long run we have created friendly community atmosphere. That’s why our building has wide array of functions for open, social, active and communicative society.
From the playground to small social gardens outside; bakery, cafes and open-air installations;
fitness room with swimming pool on the ground floor with special insulation; kindergarten with its own playground.
Parking, lounge bar, offices.
Green market, drug store, bicycle repair, coffee room, hostel, ECT.
Elevators and barrier-free space provides access for everyone.
Waste recycling blocks in two opposite parts of the building.
