The stepped building form, which results from a well thought-out interplay of building volumes, floor plan qualities and extra length allowances, creates a functional, orthogonal four-part building with rich spatial qualities on the inside. The corner-facing conservatories complement the generous living space as a flexible, seasonal room and unite the building structure as design elements to form an overall shape.
The view from the sunrooms falls on an open landscape design, which is structured by a multitude of slightly raised plant islands with trees. This lends an intimacy to the apartments in terms of exterior reference, while also creating a communal play and rest area set back from the buildings in the northern corner of the plot.
