Architecture and Construction

Build on a basement ruin from the 90's, this house is especially interesting regarding it's communication with the surroundings. Most notably - the offset of the floors that results from the connection to the different levels of the neighboring building floors. While the front of the house is rather closed off from the street, allowing only peeks through the somewhat translucent polycarbonate facade, the back of the house is much more open with completely translucent glazing and ceiling-high sliding doors. The open quality of the back of the house is also improved by the (only to the back) slanted roof that allows for a sunlit backyard.
