Text description provided by the architects. The structure is situated on a relatively small rectangular building plot located on Potocka Street in Warsaw’s Żoliborz district. An important factor that impacted the building’s form was the existing surroundings. The plot contained two free-standing buildings designated for demolition due to their poor technical condition. Following a historical survey arranged with the relevant Conservation officer, the two existing apartment buildings were demolished. The block on which the parcel is located is a holdover from the old urban and geodesic layout on which the Marymont-Potok housing estate was built. Compared to the high-rise Communist-era housing estate buildings and the large Marymont sports and recreation complex across Potocka Street, the parcel appears rather small.
