Project detail
The design idea was that the building should look like a sculpture inserted into the surrounding buildings, with its slanted gable roof.
The result is a design that understands the façade and roof as a continuous structure that establishes the sculptural character of the building as a single volume.
The solution was to cover the façade with 200m² of RHEINZINK Flat Lock Tiles and the roof utilising a RHEINZINK square tile system, both using the natural prePATINA blue-grey surface.
