house on the pond - architecture and infrastructure
 |
After one year of planning our apartment and office complex was raised on the outskirts of Rosenheim in the industrial park of Schwaig. | |
| |
The apartment building features 14 individual apartments accessible by common balconies, and in part reaches to a height of more than 2 stories. With small gardens it opens up to the countryside in the west. The comb-structured office building, on the other hand, is orientated toward the industrial park in the east. | |
| |
The tamarack wood paneling on the building facade strikes a balance between the neighboring houses built in the regional tradition and the architecture of the industrial park. | |
| |
A common area stretches between the two buildings. Beautified with plant life, it is divided into a microclimate-regulating pond as well as areas to sit or play. In the summertime, a large canvas tarp, known as Toldos, can be drawn over the entire area to provide shade. Some magnificent celebrations can be held here. | |
| |
A great entrance hall, conceived as a sort of climate zone, opens up to all offices and rooms, which are entered from balconies stretching the length of the building. |
