Located in a busy neighborhood in Stuttgart, the building draws on the rustic appearance of the surroundings and features exposed concrete, wood facade elements and a roof which reinterprets traditional gable roof structures by using large pre-cast cement sections and subtle transitioning between the horizontal and vertical surfaces. The building is simple, but striking. Mahogany window elements are combined with glass and the plasticity of the roof.
Along with the office for architecture and interior design, the three floors of office spaces accommodate a firm that develops mono-brand concepts as well as an agency for communications, corporate design and visual merchandising.
