Text description provided by architect.
The development covers half of a city block facing the central square and the main street in a new district in Uppsala, establishing urban character and clearly defined spaces.
A total of 161 apartments are distributed in three buildings of six, eight and ten floors, finished with rendered facades that have a regular design and are detailed with fine plaster variations that accentuate the volumes.
The two tallest buildings share the same ground floor, containing a health center.
The houses alter in size and height but are connected through a common material language.
Thanks to the open block structure, views in the depth of the site are possible while street and courtyard facades create an interplay.
