Client: Kallco Projekt
Finished: 2002
Services: overall planning, project design / draft, construction planning, surveillance of the building process
The office building with underground garage is situated in a 15 m long gap site between two houses of the 19th century. To construct a disposition between the old and the new buildings the storeys are twisted against each other. The twisted storeys include the tangent of the road curve counter – rotating in the construction. From the dumped stair flight next to the main building a gap is created to bring the light from the backyard trough the rooms to the front side. The building in the backyard has a smooth transition to the main building. It is an ashlar, set up around 45°, with a gallery unit put on.
