Nestled beside a heritage gem, this narrow, elongated plot, bordered by bustling streets, presented a unique challenge: to craft a a bold vision housing 25,000m2 of residential space, balancing urban density with historical sensitivity.

Our design concept centers around dynamic, cube-shaped modules that rise, revealing a cascade of generous windows framing the urban panorama A considerate setback to the south façade safeguards the adjacent museum's historical aura.

Alongside the heritage museum, our design adopts a respectful step-back, ensuring harmony in scale and introducing a sustainable feature: tiered green spaces for both private and community use. The façade's dialogue—a harmonious blend of traditional red brick and limestone, reenvisioned with bronze-finished metals and white fibre concrete—creates a contemporary narrative with the past.

Our approach merges the site's narrow dimensions with wide city views to offer spacious, light-bathed living areas. The smart rotation of a single design element addresses site constraints, leading to this distinctive architectural expression. Each cube-like module gradually reveals more glazed façade, opening up wide-ranging views. This computed rotation is designed to minimize winter snow buildup, while a novel window typology emerges, merging glazed surfaces as they ascend.

Internally, the building’s 18 floors are meticulously planned, offering a mix of one to three-bedroom apartments. Each space is crafted to maximize large-scale glazed openings, ensuring private, breathtaking views. This design ethos cultivates a living experience where abundant natural light and diverse cityscapes are a constant backdrop.

Central to our concept is the design of well-lit circulation areas, reducing the need for artificial lighting and offering picturesque views at each level, enhancing the urban living experience from the moment one steps off the lift.
