Text description provided by the architects. The old Hammer farm estate is a powerful ensemble that has developed over a period of 150 years. Through internal and external factors such as changes in production processes, fires etc. this ensemble of buildings has undergone continuous transformation. That it has always been possible to integrate the new buildings successfully is thanks to the powerful orthogonal basic structure with its characteristic courtyard spaces and the roofscape that holds everything together. Within the system established by these basic elements, over the course of the years an interesting catalogue of differentiated floor plan and construction typologies with different grains has developed.
