The first phase consists of three by two glass joints combined bolt. The construction site could be completed with a second phase of construction by another two bars. It is also about a all parts of building defined and maintained accurately contouring base. Through the natural downward slope along the Breitscheidstrasse the base is emerging in full length and forms a solid basis. The eaves were taken over from the existing buildings in the Kienestrasse. This resulted in a possible up to four storeys building, that naturally adapt itself in the road space.

Sections

All materials (preferably concrete, glass, aluminum) are used and shown in their natural property. This is part of the architectural concept. The stylistic elements, the reduction to less ornamental elements and the judicious use of the materials lead to a peaceful atmosphere, which constitutes the appropriate framework for a flexible use of the building. The glas facade lying deep in the core insulated outer wall of exposed concrete are character elements of the facade. Blackout elements from aluminum fins protect the interior spaces from overheating. Same room depths in the brace of the building increase flexibility.
