3 sisters
|
a design for three sisters
a compact solution to live in the city together and yet apart. the proposal is a hybrid a combined concept of a family house and of a small apartment block. the eldest sister shall live in the ground floor garden house a shared triple height orangery, stair and lift links the further two dwellings above. the design allows the sisters to live collectively but with the option to create three fully individual dwellings. the existing garden walls and the new street façade form a vase containing the dwellings and a garden of trees, plants and flowers. the existing brick gables and walls form the new garden facades |
