Originally, 2 or 3 apartments per floor were arranged around 11 staircases. By reducing the staircases to 6 and removing the associated corridors. It has allowed for the extension and rearrangment of the apartments. Outdoor spaces have been formed by removing alternating sections of the 3rd and 4th floorplates, creating large outdoor terrace spaces.

Fantastic project. Former Eastern Block countries (incl. East. Europe & post-USSR states) should learn from this intelligent conversion. German quality and German smart professional approach in it’s very best.
sam sie naucz!
generous project for social housing.
The parkings at the streetfront of the building have desapeared. Where do inhabitants park cars now ?
Great project. It would be interesting to see the existing floor plans and sections to see how the stairs and circulation were resolved to increase space.
